Analysis

Remington College-Online Dallas graduates earn slightly below what most Texas business students make—$43,685 four years out versus the state median of $44,084—but they're carrying nearly double the debt load. At $47,641, graduates here shoulder one of the highest debt burdens in the state for this degree, significantly above both the Texas median ($24,250) and national median ($26,000). That debt-to-earnings ratio of 1.17 means borrowers owe more than a full year's salary, which will make repayment feel tight even with modest income growth.

What makes this particularly challenging is the student population: 89% of students here receive Pell grants, indicating they're already starting from more financially vulnerable positions. These aren't students with family safety nets to help manage aggressive loan payments. The 7% earnings growth from year one to year four is positive but modest, suggesting this degree isn't opening doors to rapidly advancing career paths that would justify the debt burden.

For families considering this program, the math is straightforward: you can find business programs across Texas that deliver similar or better earnings with half the debt. While online flexibility has value for working adults, that convenience shouldn't cost an extra $23,000 in loans. Unless your child has compelling reasons to choose this specific program—like needing the online format while managing existing job responsibilities—there are more affordable paths to a business degree in Texas.
