Program Analysis
Graduates of University of Southern Indiana's Theater & Drama program earn $27,010/yr in their first year — 28% above the $21,147 national median, a strong market signal for this institution.
The 10.7x 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 — 37% task exposure — and the 4% scenario spread suggests disruption would dent but not destroy the earnings outlook.
The $19,750 debt-to-$27,010 income ratio translates to about 9 months of earnings. Standard loan terms should handle this comfortably.
Ranked #105 out of 270 programs, University of Southern Indiana's Theater & Drama offering sits in the upper half but doesn't break into the top tier.
