Program Analysis

At $44,752/yr, Business Administration graduates from University of North Florida land near the $46,892 national average — neither a standout nor a red flag.

The 22.7x 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 — 47% task exposure — and the 10% scenario spread suggests disruption would dent but not destroy the earnings outlook.

The median debt load of $15,366 represents less than half a year of starting salary — among the lightest debt-to-income ratios we track.

The five-year earnings trajectory from $44,752 to $64,007 shows 43% growth, reflecting steady but unremarkable salary progression.
