First-year earnings of $101,885 put D'Youville University's Allied Health Professions program 71% above the national median of $59,453 — one of the higher-earning programs in this field.
At 6.5x the cost of in-state tuition, the ten-year earnings outlook represents a strong return. Not exceptional, but meaningfully positive.
AI risk is moderate — 28% task exposure — and the 11% scenario spread suggests disruption would dent but not destroy the earnings outlook.
With first-year pay of $101,885 far exceeding the $27,997 median debt, the payback timeline is measured in months, not years.
A #20 ranking out of 195 Allied Health Professions programs nationally puts D'Youville University in the top 10% — a strong but not elite position.
