Program Analysis
Seattle Pacific University's Health & Physical Education graduates start at $25,625/yr, trailing the $31,057 national average by 17%. The program's value hinges on affordability.
An earnings multiple of 2.6x means the program roughly breaks even in financial terms over ten years. Non-financial factors need to justify the investment.
AI risk is moderate — 25% task exposure — and the 4% scenario spread suggests disruption would dent but not destroy the earnings outlook.
The $26,798 debt load exceeds a year of the $25,625 starting salary, suggesting a multi-year repayment window before graduates break even financially.
At #488 out of 529 programs, Seattle Pacific University's financial outcomes for Health & Physical Education trail the majority of peers. The value case depends on other factors.
