Health and Medical Administrative Services at Bryan University

Bryan University's health administration program produces outcomes that trail most Arizona alternatives by a meaningful margin. While the $31,004 starting salary sits near the national median, it ranks in just the 40th percentile among Arizona programs—below the state median of $35,519 and roughly $6,000-$8,000 behind top-performing community colleges like Pima. More concerning, earnings actually drop to $29,716 by year four, suggesting limited career progression for graduates.

The debt load of $23,952 looks manageable on paper—you'd need about 77% of first-year earnings to cover it—but Arizona students at other schools typically graduate with lower debt (state median: $19,549) while earning more. Given that 75% of Bryan students receive Pell grants, this debt-income gap matters significantly for working-class families. Competing programs offer both stronger earning potential and lighter debt burdens.

For families considering this path, the data suggests looking first at Arizona's community college options. Pima Community College graduates earn $8,400 more initially and that advantage likely compounds over time, while starting with less debt. Unless Bryan offers compelling non-financial advantages like location or scheduling flexibility, the numbers point toward alternatives that better position graduates for financial stability in Arizona's healthcare administrative job market.
