Program Analysis
At $68,633/yr, Registered Nursing & Nursing Administration graduates from Eastern Kentucky University land near the $75,273 national average — neither a standout nor a red flag.
The 18.7x earnings multiple means ten-year projected earnings exceed tuition cost by an order of magnitude. By pure financial math, this is a standout.
AI risk is moderate — 39% task exposure — and the 12% scenario spread suggests disruption would dent but not destroy the earnings outlook.
The median debt load of $22,312 represents less than half a year of starting salary — among the lightest debt-to-income ratios we track.
Ranked #262 out of 990 programs, Eastern Kentucky University's Registered Nursing & Nursing Administration offering sits in the upper half but doesn't break into the top tier.
Earnings growth is modest: $68,633 to $78,189 over five years (14% gain). This field may have a lower salary ceiling than high-growth professions.
