## How much do University of Health Sciences and Pharmacy in St. Louis graduates earn?

The reported median is $131,813 four years after completion. The peer comparison uses $55,915 as its benchmark; the difference is $75,898 per year.

These are scenarios, not observed groups of graduates. Even the downside scenario sits well above the $55,915 median for comparable institutions (same type and size).

An estimated 25.0% 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 continuing their education are outside that 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](/analysis/median-roi-hides-a-harsh-reality/) explores the risk hidden by medians, using older ten-year entrant data. [Read about the move to four-year earnings](/analysis/college-scorecard-2026-4-year-vs-10-year-earnings-2-2/).

## Do University of Health Sciences and Pharmacy in St. Louis 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](/methodology/#value-added).

University of Health Sciences and Pharmacy in St. Louis graduates’ reported earnings are $76,265 above that expectation, the 99th 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 University of Health Sciences and Pharmacy in St. Louis caused a student to earn. [Read how expected earnings are estimated](/analysis/a-value-added-approach-to-college-outcomes/).

What explains value-added earnings?

**Program & institutional factors The part attributed to observed institutional characteristics.**
+$940

**Unexplained remainder What remains after the model’s observed factors.**
+$75,325

**Total modeled value added The modeled difference from expected earnings.**
+$76,265

These are statistical model components, not proven causal effects; the remainder is not a direct measure of teaching quality.

## Which fields at University of Health Sciences and Pharmacy in St. Louis report the highest earnings?

University of Health Sciences and Pharmacy in St. Louis awards every bachelor's degree in Health Professions. The part the model attributes to the factors it measures (field of study, enrollment and the local labor market) adds $940.

The part it attributes to a remainder it does not explain adds $75,325. Within the measured factors, the STEM component adds $1,237.

An estimated 25.0% of graduates continue to graduate study, based on the program mix. Four-year earnings reflect completers who are working and not enrolled.

Health Professions accounts for 100.0% of bachelor's degrees awarded. The university is built around a single field, so a reader's decision turns on whether that field fits their goals.

The university has no nationally ranked programs among nonprofit four-year institutions. A student considering this school is choosing a specialized institution where every degree falls within the Health Professions family, and the return on that degree is what the page measures.

## Further analysis

These are scenarios, not observed groups, and the spread shows that earnings vary by field.
