Analysis
Engineering programs in Massachusetts cluster toward the higher end of national outcomes, and peer programs suggest Endicott's students could follow that pattern. Based on three comparable Massachusetts engineering programs, first-year earnings around $78,000 would exceed the national median by roughly $10,000, while estimated debt of $19,000 sits well below the typical $26,000 nationally. That produces a debt-to-earnings ratio of 0.24—meaning graduates might repay their loans with less than three months of their first-year salary.
The real question is whether Endicott can deliver outcomes matching its state peers. The estimated $78,000 figure represents the Massachusetts median across a limited set of programs, placing it alongside Wentworth but far behind Franklin W Olin's $109,000. For a school with a 72% admission rate, matching more selective programs' outcomes would be impressive. The modest debt load provides a cushion even if actual earnings fall somewhat short of the state benchmark.
If your child thrives in Endicott's hands-on learning environment, the estimated numbers suggest reasonable financial upside. But recognize these figures come from peer programs, not Endicott's actual graduates—so visiting campus, talking to recent alumni, and understanding the program's industry connections matter more here than usual.

About This Data
Source: U.S. Department of Education College Scorecard (October 2025 release)
Population: Graduates who received federal financial aid (Title IV grants or loans). At Endicott College, approximately 13% of students receive Pell grants. Students who did not receive federal aid are not included in these figures.
Earnings: Median earnings from IRS W-2 data for graduates who are employed and not enrolled in further education, measured 1 year after completion. Earnings are pre-tax and include wages, salaries, and self-employment income.
Debt: Median cumulative federal loan debt at graduation. Does not include private loans or Parent PLUS loans borrowed on behalf of students.
Estimated Earnings: Actual earnings data is not available for this program (typically due to privacy thresholds when fewer than 30 graduates reported earnings). The estimate shown is based on the median of 3 similar programs in MA. Actual outcomes may vary.
