Siena Heights University Career Outcomes & Earnings

Although affordability is Siena Heights University's strongest pillar, return measures offer two reference points. Federally aided completers who are working and not enrolled have median earnings of $62,131 four years after completion, in the 57th percentile.

That median stands $6,216 above the peer median of $55,915, the middle value for comparable institutions (same type and size). Graduates earn about $359 less than the model expects for similar students, effectively at the expected level.

Earnings beyond expectations—the gap between what graduates earn and what the model expects for similar students—lands in the 53rd 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) adds $3,424.

The part it attributes to a remainder it does not explain subtracts $3,783. Azimuth places the return pillar in the 59th percentile among nonprofit four-year institutions.

The above-peer median and near-expected model result use different comparison points.

Earnings vary across Siena Heights University’s earnings scenarios and its larger programs. The downside scenario is $47,069, the typical scenario is $62,131, and the upside scenario reaches $82,188; these are earnings scenarios from the program mix, not observed graduate groups.

Four years after completion, median program earnings are $82,539 in Nursing, $81,797 in Allied Health Professions, and $72,791 in Criminal Justice. Those program results give the modeled range a concrete field-by-field context.

An estimated 25.5% of graduates continue to graduate study, a figure estimated from the program mix rather than observed enrollment. Four-year earnings include only completers who are working and not enrolled, so the estimate helps frame the median as a snapshot excluding those continuing their education.
