Business Administration, Management and Operations at Amberton University

A debt-to-earnings ratio of 0.59 suggests this program should be manageable financially—borrowing roughly half of what similar Texas business graduates earn in their first year falls within sustainable territory. Based on comparable business programs in Texas, students here are looking at around $26,000 in debt and $44,000 in first-year earnings, both tracking closely with statewide medians. The challenge is that these estimates come from peer programs, not Amberton's actual graduates, so there's inherent uncertainty about whether this specific program delivers similar outcomes.

What's clear from the Texas landscape is the enormous range in business graduate earnings—from the state median of $44,000 to over $70,000 at Texas Christian University. Where Amberton falls within that spectrum matters tremendously for ROI, and with only estimates available, that placement remains unknown. The program's modest Pell grant percentage (23%) suggests it may serve a different demographic than most competitors, which could influence both the investment required and career trajectories.

For families deciding on Amberton, the estimated numbers point to a reasonable investment if outcomes match peer programs. But without verified data for this specific school, confirm what recent graduates are actually earning and whether they're successfully entering business careers. The difference between the state median and what TCU or UT-Austin graduates earn is $20,000-27,000 annually—understanding where Amberton actually lands could mean tens of thousands of dollars over a career.
