International Business at Arizona State University Campus Immersion

ASU's International Business program lands squarely in the middle—nationally, it underperforms the typical program by about $5,000 annually, but within Arizona, it actually matches the state median. The debt load of $18,500 is notably lower than the national average, which helps offset the modest earnings. Given that only three Arizona schools offer this program, you're essentially choosing between ASU's campus and digital options, both showing identical outcomes.

The debt-to-earnings ratio of 0.41 is manageable, meaning graduates earn back their debt in under half a year of work. However, the national percentile ranking (31st) signals this isn't one of ASU's strongest programs from an earnings standpoint. For a school with a 90% admission rate, accessibility is clearly part of the value proposition, but families should recognize they're not getting premium salary outcomes that might justify choosing this over more practical business concentrations.

For Arizona residents seeking International Business specifically, this program delivers what the local market offers—nothing more, nothing less. The lower debt compared to peer programs nationwide provides some cushion, but if your child is flexible on specialization, it's worth comparing earnings from ASU's other business tracks before committing to this particular concentration.
