Program Analysis

First-year earnings of $68,678 track close to the $75,273 national median for Nursing programs. This is a middle-of-the-road outcome on salary alone.

An earnings multiple of 4.7x means ten-year projected earnings exceed tuition, but not by a dramatic margin. Returns are positive but modest.

Some AI exposure exists in Nursing's typical career paths, with 39% of job tasks potentially affected. The pessimistic scenario still projects solid returns, with a 11% gap from the optimistic case.

At $26,000 in median debt against $68,678 in first-year earnings, graduates can expect to clear their loan balance in under six months of full earnings.

Ranked #950 of 990 Nursing programs, The University of Findlay falls below the median. Stronger options exist, though cost and location may compensate.
