Health Services/Allied Health/Health Sciences at Albertus Magnus College

A debt-to-earnings ratio of 0.77 suggests manageable borrowing—a graduate earning around $35,000 would owe roughly $27,000, putting monthly payments at about $300 on a standard repayment plan. That's workable, though tight for someone starting at this income level. However, both figures come from national medians across similar programs, not Albertus Magnus graduates specifically. With only seven health sciences bachelor's programs in Connecticut, the state's limited pool of reported data makes it difficult to know whether this particular program aligns more closely with Connecticut's typical $32,560 starting salary or the national $35,279 figure.

What matters most here is recognizing that "health services" is an umbrella term covering everything from health administration to community health work—careers with vastly different earning trajectories. The national data includes 156 programs, meaning you're looking at a wide range of job outcomes. If your child is targeting a specific role within health services, investigate what Albertus Magnus graduates actually do after graduation and whether those positions typically require further credentials. Nearly half of students here receive Pell grants, indicating the college serves many families where affordability truly matters, so understanding the program's actual track record becomes even more critical before committing.
