Program Analysis
First-year earnings of $47,912 track close to the $55,340 national median for Finance and Financial Management Services programs. This is a middle-of-the-road outcome on salary alone.
The 14.8x 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 — 55% task exposure — and the 14% scenario spread suggests disruption would dent but not destroy the earnings outlook.
The $25,447 debt-to-$47,912 income ratio translates to about 6 months of earnings. Standard loan terms should handle this comfortably.
Ranked #194 out of 431 programs, Indiana University of Pennsylvania-Main Campus's Finance and Financial Management Services offering sits in the upper half but doesn't break into the top tier.
Earnings growth from $47,912 to $71,998 over five years (50% increase) indicates that graduates in this field see meaningful salary progression.
