La Roche University Outcomes: $58K Median Earnings (2026)

How much do La Roche University graduates earn?

The reported median is $57,880 four years after completion. The peer comparison uses $55,915 as its benchmark; the difference is $1,965 per year.

For a university whose affordability is its strongest , the return figures are less favorable: Azimuth places La Roche University’s return pillar in the 17th percentile among nonprofit four-year institutions. Graduates earn about $7,186 less than expects for similar students, a result in the 28th 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 $2,458. The part it attributes to a remainder it does not explain subtracts $4,728.

Federally aided completers who are working and not enrolled earn a median of $57,880 four years after completion, in the 43rd percentile. That is $1,965 above the peer median of $55,915 for comparable institutions, the middle value for the same type and size.

Program selection makes the modeled earnings range at La Roche University broad. Program-mix scenarios run from $45,807 on the downside to $72,480 on the upside; they are earnings scenarios, not observed groups.

Among the higher program medians four years after completion, Nursing reports $92,902, Computer and Information Sciences reports $68,717, and Computer Science reports $68,248. Those field-level figures show why one schoolwide earnings figure cannot stand in for every option.

At La Roche University, graduate-school plans shape the reading of earnings: an estimated 25.9% of graduates continue to graduate study, a figure estimated from the program mix. The four-year figure covers federally aided completers who are working and not enrolled, leaving those in further study outside that measure.

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 La Roche 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.

La Roche University graduates’ reported earnings are $7,186 below that expectation, the 28th 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 La Roche University caused a student to earn. Read how expected earnings are estimated.

Which fields at La Roche University report the highest earnings?

At La Roche University, earnings four years after completion differ markedly by field, making program choice central to the return picture. The higher-earning options in the published data are Nursing, at $92,902 with 12 degrees awarded, and Computer and Information Sciences, at $68,717 with 13 degrees awarded.

Computer Science also posts $68,248 across 7 degrees awarded. More moderate earnings appear in Management Science, which recorded $53,064 with 48 degrees awarded.

The difference between these fields means the institution-wide earnings figure can conceal distinct outcomes across programs.

Business accounts for 34.8% of bachelor’s degrees awarded, so field-level earnings are especially relevant when weighing La Roche University. Among the largest fields, Management Science awarded 48 degrees and had median earnings of $53,064 four years after completion.

Psychology awarded 23 degrees and had $44,709 in median earnings four years after completion. Health Professions and Related Clinical Sciences awarded 17 degrees and had median earnings of $51,817 four years after completion.

Marketing awarded 17 degrees and had median earnings of $51,540 four years after completion. Accounting awarded 16 degrees and had median earnings of $59,181 four years after completion.

These large fields span different earnings levels, so the intended field matters within the university’s overall results.

Further analysis

Earnings scenarios grounded in the program mix put the downside at $45,807, the typical outcome at $57,880, and the upside at $72,480. Nursing reaches $92,902 four years after completion, whereas Psychology, the lowest-earning among the largest programs, is at $44,709. The spread shows that field choice matters substantially to the modeled range.

The graduate earnings figure offers a schoolwide starting point rather than a forecast for every field. At La Roche University, federally aided completers who are working and not enrolled have median earnings of $57,880 four years after completion.

Azimuth places that measure in the 43rd percentile among nonprofit four-year institutions, based on an earnings cohort of 400 completers. A typical earnings scenario based on the program mix is $57,880.

It is a scenario rather than an observed group, so field-level outcomes can differ from this schoolwide figure. An estimated 25.9% of graduates continue to graduate study, a figure estimated from the program mix rather than observed enrollment after completing an undergraduate degree.
