Program Analysis
Graduates earn $33,421/yr, roughly in line with the $34,392 national median for Sociology. The value proposition here depends on cost, not earnings.
An earnings multiple of 2.1x means the program roughly breaks even in financial terms over ten years. Non-financial factors need to justify the investment.
AI risk is moderate — 42% task exposure — and the 6% scenario spread suggests disruption would dent but not destroy the earnings outlook.
The $24,500 debt-to-$33,421 income ratio translates to about 9 months of earnings. Standard loan terms should handle this comfortably.
At #390 out of 414 programs, University of Redlands's financial outcomes for Sociology trail the majority of peers. The value case depends on other factors.
The five-year earnings trajectory from $33,421 to $46,405 shows 39% growth, reflecting steady but unremarkable salary progression.
