Analysis

Rasmussen University-Florida's Information Science program shows surprisingly strong outcomes despite serving a population where 55% receive Pell grants. First-year earnings of $64,329 beat both the national median ($58,651) and Florida's state median ($59,368), landing graduates in the 60th percentile among Florida's 11 programs offering this degree. The debt load of $22,632 creates a manageable 0.35 debt-to-earnings ratio—you're looking at roughly four months of gross income to cover the total educational investment.

The catch? This data comes from fewer than 30 graduates, which means these numbers could shift considerably with more data. Still, the fundamentals look solid: graduates earn more than typical Information Science majors while borrowing substantially less than the Florida state median of $52,712. That's less than half the debt burden other Florida students typically carry for similar credentials.

For families concerned about affordability and employability, this program delivers on both fronts based on available evidence. The combination of above-average earnings and below-average debt creates genuine value, particularly for students who might otherwise struggle to access bachelor's-level tech education. Just understand you're working with limited data—think of these numbers as directionally encouraging rather than guaranteed outcomes.
