Program Analysis

First-year earnings of $40,888 track close to the $46,892 national median for Business Administration programs. This is a middle-of-the-road outcome on salary alone.

At 7.8x the cost of in-state tuition, the ten-year earnings outlook represents a strong return. Not exceptional, but meaningfully positive.

AI risk is moderate — 47% task exposure — and the 11% scenario spread suggests disruption would dent but not destroy the earnings outlook.

At $18,750 in median debt against $40,888 in first-year earnings, graduates can expect to clear their loan balance in under six months of full earnings.

At #662 out of 1,169 programs, Florida College's financial outcomes for Business Administration trail the majority of peers. The value case depends on other factors.

Earnings growth from $40,888 to $64,687 over five years (58% increase) indicates that graduates in this field see meaningful salary progression.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does Florida College's Business Administration program score?
A score of 59/100 reflects decent absolute metrics, but Florida College trails the majority of Business Administration programs on relative rankings. Context matters more than the raw number.
How vulnerable is Business Administration to AI automation?
AI won't 'replace' Business Administration careers outright, but it is likely to reduce the number of job openings. We model 47% task exposure, which compresses field employment probability in our scenarios.
