Program Analysis

Graduates earn $39,762/yr, roughly in line with the $46,252 national median for Health and Medical Administrative Services. The value proposition here depends on cost, not earnings.

The 3.3x return on tuition is positive but not overwhelming. Financial outcomes depend on keeping costs close to in-state rates.

AI risk is moderate — 54% task exposure — and the 16% scenario spread suggests disruption would dent but not destroy the earnings outlook.

The $27,000 debt-to-$39,762 income ratio translates to about 8 months of earnings. Standard loan terms should handle this comfortably.

At #207 out of 262 programs, University of Scranton's financial outcomes for Health and Medical Administrative Services trail the majority of peers. The value case depends on other factors.

Earnings growth from $39,762 to $75,008 over five years (89% increase) indicates that graduates in this field see meaningful salary progression.
