Allied Health and Medical Assisting Services at Miller-Motte College-Jacksonville

Miller-Motte College-Jacksonville's Allied Health program significantly underperforms both state and national standards, ranking in just the 10th percentile nationally and 25th percentile among North Carolina programs. While graduates start at $25,988—about $9,000 below the state median of $34,923—they're also paying $27,403 in debt, which is $5,400 more than the typical NC program charges for similar outcomes.

The debt burden becomes particularly concerning when you consider that nearby community colleges deliver much stronger results. Martin Community College graduates earn $42,820 (65% more than Miller-Motte), while Nash Community College produces $38,589 earners—both likely with significantly less debt given their public status. Even four years post-graduation, Miller-Motte alumni only reach $27,177, which remains well below what many other NC programs achieve in year one.

For families considering this investment, the math is straightforward: you'll pay above-average debt for below-average outcomes in a state with numerous stronger alternatives. The debt-to-earnings ratio of 1.05 means graduates owe more than their entire first-year salary, creating immediate financial pressure. Community colleges throughout North Carolina offer the same credential with better job market outcomes and lower costs, making them the more practical choice for most families.
