Program Analysis
Graduates earn $84,969/yr, edging above the $75,273 national average for Nursing — a modest premium that suggests solid regional demand.
The 12.7x 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 — 39% task exposure — and the 14% scenario spread suggests disruption would dent but not destroy the earnings outlook.
At $20,313 in median debt against $84,969 in first-year earnings, graduates can expect to clear their loan balance in under six months of full earnings.
Ranked #292 out of 990 programs, University of Connecticut-Stamford's Nursing offering sits in the upper half but doesn't break into the top tier.
Earnings growth is modest: $84,969 to $93,828 over five years (10% gain). This field may have a lower salary ceiling than high-growth professions.
