Program Analysis

AI risk is moderate — 39% task exposure — and the 13% scenario spread suggests disruption would dent but not destroy the earnings outlook.

At $29,500 in median debt against $78,980 in first-year earnings, graduates can expect to clear their loan balance in under six months of full earnings.

At #893 out of 990 programs, Brookline College-Albuquerque's financial outcomes for Nursing trail the majority of peers. The value case depends on other factors.

Earnings growth is modest: $78,980 to $88,614 over five years (12% gain). This field may have a lower salary ceiling than high-growth professions.
