Allied Health Diagnostic, Intervention, and Treatment Professions at Concorde Career Institute-Jacksonville

Concorde Career Institute-Jacksonville's graduates earn about $50,000 in their first year—roughly $4,000 below Florida's median for allied health programs and trailing significantly behind the state's community colleges. Among Florida's 52 allied health programs, this sits at just the 40th percentile, while programs at Seminole State and Broward College produce graduates earning $15,000 more annually.

The debt picture offers some relief: at $24,350, it's manageable relative to first-year earnings (a 0.49 ratio means graduates can theoretically pay off loans in six months of gross income). That's actually better than both state and national typical debt loads for these programs. With 71% of students receiving Pell grants, this serves a predominantly lower-income population where controlling debt matters enormously.

The 8% earnings growth over four years suggests reasonable career progression, but it won't close the gap with stronger programs. For families weighing this against nearby community colleges, the question becomes whether Concorde's 96% admission rate and presumably faster completion timeline justify accepting permanently lower earnings. If your child can access Broward or Miami Dade College instead, those programs deliver substantially better returns at similar or lower debt levels.
