Boricua College Career Outcomes & Earnings

Updated

How much do Boricua College graduates earn?

The reported median is $50,662 four years after completion. The peer comparison uses $55,915 as its benchmark; the difference is -$5,253 per year.

Azimuth places the return for Boricua College in the 35th percentile among nonprofit four-year institutions. Earnings for federally aided graduates who are working and not enrolled reach a median of $50,662 four years after completing a degree, in the 19th percentile.

Boricua College's median falls $5,253 below the $55,915 median for comparable institutions (same type and size). Graduates earn about $1,257 less than expects for similar students.

That places the result in the 50th percentile. The part the model attributes to the factors it measures (field of study, enrollment and the local labor market) subtracts $7,859.

The part it attributes to a remainder it does not explain adds $6,602. Within the measured factors, the STEM component subtracts $1,659.

The earnings scenarios, estimated from the program mix, range from $45,733 on the downside to $55,959 on the upside, with $50,662 as the typical scenario. These are scenarios, not observed groups of graduates.

The two programs with published earnings data are Teacher Education and Business Administration and Management. Teacher Education graduates earn a median of $55,959 four years after completion, from 30 degrees awarded.

Business Administration and Management graduates earn $42,710, from 9 degrees awarded.

An estimated 32.7% of graduates continue to graduate study, a figure estimated from the program mix rather than observed enrollment. Because four-year earnings cover completers who are working and not enrolled, those continuing their education are outside that earnings snapshot.

School and program earnings use pooled 2017–18 and 2018–19 completion cohorts, measured in 2022 and 2023 and expressed in 2024 dollars. How the model works.

How could earnings differ from the median?

The planning scenarios range from $45,733 to $55,959, around the reported median of $50,662. Compare the lower scenario with Boricua College borrowing and monthly payments to see how a smaller income could change your plan.

Downside shows a lower-earning scenario based on the college’s mix of programs; upside shows a higher-earning scenario. Typical is the school’s reported median four years after completion. These are planning scenarios, not a forecast of your salary or percentiles of individual graduates.

Why the downside matters explores the risk hidden by medians, using older ten-year entrant data. Read about the move to four-year earnings.

Do Boricua College graduates earn more than expected?

Azimuth models what we would expect graduates to earn based on who the college enrolls, how selective it is and its local economy. The difference between that expectation and reported earnings is what Azimuth calls value added.

Boricua College graduates’ reported earnings are $1,257 below that expectation, the 50th percentile for this measure. Unlike a peer comparison, it adjusts for who enrolls.

The breakdown separates the contribution attributed to observed factors from the remaining difference. Neither component establishes how much attending Boricua College caused a student to earn. Read how expected earnings are estimated.

Which fields at Boricua College report the highest earnings?

Boricua College awards bachelor's degrees in two fields with published earnings, and the range between them is wide. Teacher Education is both the largest program with published earnings and the highest-earning one, at 30 degrees awarded and median earnings of $55,959 four years after completion.

Business Administration and Management is the other program with earnings data, at 9 degrees awarded and a median of $42,710. The university has no ranked programs and no STEM degrees.

Teacher Education awards more than three times as many degrees as the other published program.

The university awards degrees in a small number of fields, with Public Administration & Social Services and Education together accounting for nearly all of them. Teacher Education is the largest program with published earnings at 30 degrees awarded a year, and its graduates earn a median of $55,959 four years after completion.

Business Administration and Management is the second-largest program with published earnings, with 9 degrees awarded and median earnings of $42,710. Earnings data is available for 2 programs, so the picture is narrow but clear: the largest program is also the highest-earning one.

Further analysis

Earnings scenarios estimated from the program mix range from a downside of $45,733 to a typical outcome of $50,662 and an upside of $55,959. Teacher Education sits at the high end with $55,959 four years after completion; Business Administration and Management, the lowest-earning large program, stands at $42,710.

Four years after completing a degree at Boricua College, federally aided graduates who are working and not enrolled earn a median of $50,662. That figure sits below the $55,915 median for comparable institutions (same type and size), and Azimuth places it in the 19th percentile among nonprofit four-year institutions.

The earnings cohort is 168 completers. Earnings scenarios estimated from the program mix put the typical outcome at $50,662, with a downside scenario of $45,733 and an upside scenario of $55,959.

These are scenarios, not observed groups of graduates. An estimated 32.7% of graduates continue to graduate study, based on the program mix.

That estimate suggests most completers enter the workforce directly, so the four-year earnings figures capture the early-career picture for the majority.
