Four years after completing a degree, federally aided graduates who are working and not enrolled earn a median of $59,730. That is $2,429 above the $57,301 median for comparable institutions (same type and size).
The median sits at the 50th percentile among nonprofit four-year institutions. Graduates earn about $4,117 less than the model expects for similar students.
That places the gap at the 39th percentile. Azimuth places the university at the 48th percentile for return among nonprofit four-year institutions.
The part the model attributes to the factors it measures adds $4,645. The part it attributes to a remainder it does not explain subtracts $8,762.
University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh posts a median of $59,730 four years after completion among federally aided completers who are working and not enrolled. The earnings cohort includes 2,696 completers.
Among nonprofit four-year institutions, that median lands at the 50th percentile. Graduates earn about $4,117 less than the model expects for similar students.
Earnings scenarios estimated from the program mix range from $48,817 on the downside to $80,305 on the upside, with typical earnings at $59,730. These scenarios are estimates from the program mix, not observed groups or percentiles.
An estimated 28.2% of graduates continue to graduate study, based on the program mix. That estimate reflects the fields students choose rather than observed graduate enrollment.
University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh shows a mixed return picture: federally aided completers who are working and not enrolled have median earnings of $59,730 four years after completion, in the 50th percentile. That median is above the peer median, the middle value for comparable institutions (same type and size), of $57,301, by $2,429.
Graduates earn about $4,117 less than the model expects for similar students. Earnings beyond expectations, the gap between what graduates earn and what the model expects for similar students, sits in the 39th percentile.
Azimuth places the return pillar in the 48th percentile among nonprofit four-year institutions. Earnings scenarios grounded in the program mix run from $48,817 in the downside scenario to $80,305 in the upside scenario.
The part the model attributes to the factors it measures (field of study, enrollment and the local labor market) adds $4,645. The part it attributes to a remainder it does not explain subtracts $8,762.
Within the measured factors, the STEM component subtracts $266. Program earnings vary across the larger fields.
Nursing, the largest program, awarded 290 degrees and had median earnings of $77,490 four years after completion; that is 0.87x the national median for its field. The larger programs therefore span substantially different earnings levels, alongside the school-level pattern of earnings above comparable institutions but below the model’s expectation.
Earnings vary substantially by modeled scenario at University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh, from $48,817 in the downside case to $80,305 in the upside case. The scenarios are modeled from the program mix rather than observed groups.
At University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh, the value picture is mixed: borrower debt is above the peer median, and the earnings model is less favorable. Graduates earn about $4,117 less than the model expects for similar students.
Among borrowers who completed, median federal student loan debt is $21,500. Comparable institutions (same type and size) have a peer median of $21,229, placing the university above that level.
That debt corresponds to an estimated payment of $244 a month if repaid over ten years. For aid recipients, average net price, what they pay after grants and scholarships, is $14,305.
It stands $237 above the peer median of $14,068. The return picture is mixed: costs and debt sit near comparable institutions, while modeled earnings fall short of expectations.
