Analysis

Remington College-Shreveport's business administration program matches the Louisiana median for associate's-level business graduates, which unfortunately places it well below what these programs typically deliver nationwide. At $26,287 in year one, graduates earn about $7,700 less than the national median, and those earnings actually decline slightly over the next three years—a red flag suggesting limited career advancement potential. The $21,750 in debt sits below the state median but still represents nearly 10 months of gross income, which can strain a budget when these jobs often pay around $2,200 per month pre-tax.

The saving grace here is state context: this program ranks at the 60th percentile among Louisiana's business programs, outperforming half the competition in a state where business associate's degrees generally underperform. With 91% of students receiving Pell grants, this college clearly serves students with limited options. For families comparing in-state choices, Herzing University-New Orleans shows significantly better outcomes at $30,536, while community college options like Delgado offer similar earnings with potentially lower debt.

The value proposition here depends entirely on alternatives. If your child can access a Louisiana community college or a program with stronger earnings momentum, those routes make more financial sense. This program works as a last resort for students needing flexible scheduling or specific location access, but the stagnant earnings trajectory means graduates should view this as a stepping stone requiring additional credentials or job changes to build a sustainable career.
