Program Analysis

At $60,055 per year, Finance and Financial Management Services graduates from Saint Louis University earn slightly above the $55,340 national median. The premium is real but not dramatic.

An earnings multiple of 2.9x means the program roughly breaks even in financial terms over ten years. Non-financial factors need to justify the investment.

AI risk is moderate — 55% task exposure — and the 12% scenario spread suggests disruption would dent but not destroy the earnings outlook.

The median debt load of $20,500 represents less than half a year of starting salary — among the lightest debt-to-income ratios we track.

At #403 out of 431 programs, Saint Louis University's financial outcomes for Finance and Financial Management Services trail the majority of peers. The value case depends on other factors.
