Program Analysis
Graduates earn $37,345/yr, roughly in line with the $38,856 national median for Mental and Social Health Services and Allied Professions. The value proposition here depends on cost, not earnings.
The 12.4x 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 — 30% task exposure — and the 7% scenario spread suggests disruption would dent but not destroy the earnings outlook.
The $21,000 debt-to-$37,345 income ratio translates to about 7 months of earnings. Standard loan terms should handle this comfortably.
Ranked #19 out of 48 programs, Worcester State University's Mental and Social Health Services and Allied Professions offering sits in the upper half but doesn't break into the top tier.
The five-year earnings trajectory from $37,345 to $55,146 shows 48% growth, reflecting steady but unremarkable salary progression.
