Overview

Only 11% of students graduate from South University-Montgomery. This low graduation rate raises questions about student support and program effectiveness. With an enrollment of just 299, this small institution faces challenges in retention.

Earnings data shows that graduates earn around $34,421 after ten years. The lack of mobility metrics makes it difficult to assess how well students are moving up the economic ladder. With 66% of students receiving Pell Grants, many rely on financial aid to attend.

The net price for students is $27,807, with a median debt of $26,123 upon graduation. These numbers indicate that while many students can access education here, they may graduate with significant debt. Students interested in Health Professions, Business & Marketing, Psychology, and Criminal Justice may find the programs appealing, but the overall outcomes highlight the risks involved.
