Business Operations Support and Assistant Services at Interactive College of Technology-Gainesville

Interactive College of Technology-Gainesville's business operations program reports earnings nearly $5,000 above the national median—placing it in the 89th percentile nationally—while keeping debt roughly 30% lower than typical programs. At $14,323 in student debt against $33,883 in first-year earnings, graduates face a manageable 0.42 debt-to-earnings ratio. With 70% of students receiving Pell grants, this program appears to serve a predominantly lower-income population and deliver solid entry-level earning power.

The state picture adds helpful context: this program's outcomes match Georgia's median exactly for both earnings and debt. Among the state's 27 similar programs, it sits comfortably in the middle of the pack, tied with sister campuses in Chamblee and Morrow. Georgia Northwestern edges slightly higher at $35,000, but the difference is modest. What matters more is that Georgia business operations programs generally outperform national averages, and this school keeps pace with that trend.

The significant caveat here is sample size—fewer than 30 graduates means these numbers could swing considerably year to year. For a parent considering this program, the upside is clear financial accessibility and earnings that beat most comparable programs nationwide. Just recognize that the small graduating class makes it harder to predict whether your child's experience will match these outcomes.
