Outcomes Overview
Wilson graduates enter the workforce with a median debt of $26,328 and earn $43,326 ten years post-graduation. This creates a debt-to-earnings ratio of 61%, which is manageable compared to the national average of around 70% for private colleges. Monthly loan payments of $279 consume about 7.7% of typical graduate income. The college's strong veterinary medicine and equestrian programs often lead graduates into animal care, agricultural, and rural business sectors. However, the 51% six-year graduation rate means nearly half of students don't complete their degrees. With a 97.2% employment rate for graduates and reasonable debt levels, Wilson offers an average return on investment for students who successfully complete their programs.
