Huntington University Outcomes: $52K Median Earnings (2026)

How much do Huntington University graduates earn?

The reported median is $52,242 four years after completion. The peer comparison uses $55,915 as its benchmark; the difference is -$3,673 per year.

Huntington University has a mixed return picture: federally aided completers who are working and not enrolled have median earnings of $52,242 four years after completion. Azimuth puts that earnings measure in the 24th percentile among nonprofit four-year institutions, and assigns the return to the 21st percentile in the same cohort.

Graduates earn about $8,255 less than expects for similar students. Earnings beyond expectations, the gap between what graduates earn and what the model expects for similar students, falls in the 24th percentile among nonprofit four-year institutions.

The part the model attributes to the factors it measures (field of study, enrollment and the local labor market) subtracts $651. The part it attributes to a remainder it does not explain subtracts $7,604.

The peer median, the middle value for comparable institutions (same type and size), is $55,915; Huntington’s median is $3,673 below it.

Program choice marks a wide difference in modeled earnings at Huntington University. The downside earnings scenario is $42,352, and the upside scenario is $70,464; both are estimated from the program mix rather than observed groups.

Four years after completion, program medians are $71,310 in Nursing, $59,538 in Business Administration and Management, and $34,787 in Graphic Communications. Those program results help show why the earnings scenarios span a wide range.

An estimated 21.2% of graduates continue to graduate study, a figure estimated from the program mix rather than observed enrollment. Four-year earnings cover completers who are working and not enrolled, so those pursuing further study are outside that earnings snapshot.

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 Huntington University 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.

Huntington University graduates’ reported earnings are $8,255 below that expectation, the 24th 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 Huntington University caused a student to earn. Read how expected earnings are estimated.

Which fields at Huntington University report the highest earnings?

At Huntington University, the larger programs span a broad range of median earnings four years after completion, making field choice especially consequential. Nursing sits at the higher end with $71,310 in median earnings and 31 degrees awarded in one academic year.

Business Administration and Management follows with $59,538 and 22 degrees awarded. More moderate earnings appear in Film/Video and Photographic Arts, where median earnings were $46,073 across 18 degrees awarded, and Graphic Communications, with $34,787 and 16 degrees awarded.

The higher-earning health and business fields contrast with these arts-oriented fields, so the school-level earnings figure covers materially different program outcomes.

Health Professions accounts for 23.2% of bachelor’s degrees awarded at Huntington University, making it the largest program family. 5 fields have published earnings data, with reported medians measured four years after completion.

Nursing: 31 degrees awarded and median earnings of $71,310 four years after completion. Business Administration and Management: 22 degrees awarded and $59,538 in median earnings.

Film/Video and Photographic Arts: 18 degrees awarded and $46,073 in median earnings. Graphic Communications: 16 degrees awarded and $34,787 in median earnings.

Kinesiology and Physical Education: 15 degrees awarded and $48,400 in median earnings.

Further analysis

Earnings scenarios tied to the program mix put four-year earnings at $42,352 on the downside, $52,242 in the typical case, and $70,464 on the upside. Nursing is the highest-earning named program at $71,310 four years after completion, whereas Graphic Communications, the lowest-earning among the largest programs, is at $34,787. That spread shows variation by field.

Graduate outcomes show a modest schoolwide earnings figure alongside a broad range of modeled paths. At Huntington University, federally aided completers who are working and not enrolled have median earnings of $52,242 four years after completion.

Azimuth places that earnings measure in the 24th percentile among nonprofit four-year institutions, based on an earnings cohort of 306 completers. The typical earnings scenario, based on the program mix, is $52,242.

An estimated 21.2% of graduates continue to graduate study, a figure estimated from the program mix. The schoolwide median and the modeled scenario describe different views of earnings, with graduate study also part of the program-mix picture.
