Program Analysis
Graduates earn $35,701/yr, edging above the $31,057 national average for Health & Physical Education — a modest premium that suggests solid regional demand.
At 10.0x the cost of in-state tuition, the ten-year earnings outlook represents a strong return. Not exceptional, but meaningfully positive.
AI risk is moderate — 25% task exposure — and the 6% scenario spread suggests disruption would dent but not destroy the earnings outlook.
The $23,250 debt-to-$35,701 income ratio translates to about 8 months of earnings. Standard loan terms should handle this comfortably.
Ranked #177 out of 529 programs, Central Connecticut State University's Health & Physical Education offering sits in the upper half but doesn't break into the top tier.
The five-year earnings trajectory from $35,701 to $47,615 shows 33% growth, reflecting steady but unremarkable salary progression.
