Program Analysis

First-year earnings of $32,919 track close to the $34,272 national median for Allied Health and Medical Assisting Services programs. This is a middle-of-the-road outcome on salary alone.

The 12.1x 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 — 28% task exposure — and the 11% scenario spread suggests disruption would dent but not destroy the earnings outlook.

The $20,500 debt-to-$32,919 income ratio translates to about 7 months of earnings. Standard loan terms should handle this comfortably.

Ranked #6 out of 12 programs, University of Connecticut-Avery Point's Allied Health and Medical Assisting Services offering sits in the upper half but doesn't break into the top tier.

Earnings growth from $32,919 to $83,413 over five years (153% increase) indicates that graduates in this field see meaningful salary progression.
