Program Analysis

Graduates earn $49,789/yr, roughly in line with the $53,724 national median for Accounting and Related Services. The value proposition here depends on cost, not earnings.

The 4.9x return on tuition is positive but not overwhelming. Financial outcomes depend on keeping costs close to in-state rates.

AI risk is moderate — 62% task exposure — and the 16% scenario spread suggests disruption would dent but not destroy the earnings outlook.

With first-year pay of $49,789 far exceeding the $22,000 median debt, the payback timeline is measured in months, not years.

At #528 out of 714 programs, St. Joseph's University-New York's financial outcomes for Accounting and Related Services trail the majority of peers. The value case depends on other factors.

The five-year earnings trajectory from $49,789 to $71,637 shows 44% growth, reflecting steady but unremarkable salary progression.
