Allied Health Diagnostic, Intervention, and Treatment Professions at Miller-Motte College-McCann-Monroe

Miller-Motte College-McCann's allied health program generates earnings well below what Louisiana families should expect. At $37,084 in first-year earnings, graduates earn 29% less than the Louisiana state median for these programs and 32% less than the national average. While this program ranks at the 25th percentile statewide, that still means three-quarters of Louisiana's allied health programs deliver better outcomes—including public community colleges like Bossier Parish and South Louisiana, where graduates earn nearly double.

The debt burden compounds the concern. At $27,386, graduates carry significantly more debt than typical Louisiana students in this field ($21,375 median), resulting in a debt-to-earnings ratio of 0.74. For context, the top-performing Louisiana programs have similar or lower debt while producing graduates earning $60,000-$70,000. The modest 3% earnings growth over four years suggests limited career advancement potential, leaving graduates at just $38,015 by year four—still far below entry-level earnings at better programs.

For Louisiana families, this represents a particularly poor value when public community colleges in the state offer the same credential with dramatically better outcomes. With 74% of students here receiving Pell grants, the program appears to be serving a vulnerable population while underdelivering on economic mobility. The robust sample size confirms these aren't statistical flukes—this is the program's consistent performance pattern.
