Health and Medical Administrative Services at University of Connecticut-Hartford Campus

The standout figure here is the reported four-year earnings of $80,323—significantly higher than what comparable programs produce nationally ($44,345) and even above Connecticut's state median of $60,683. While first-year earnings estimates from peer programs suggest a more modest $44,345, that four-year jump is substantial and reflects real progression in healthcare administration careers, where experience and credential recognition open doors quickly.

The estimated debt picture looks manageable at $26,592, well below both national and state medians for this field. With a debt-to-earnings ratio of 0.60 based on first-year figures, graduates would theoretically face about seven months of pre-tax income to cover their loans—a reasonable threshold. However, if the actual four-year earnings trajectory holds, this debt becomes even less burdensome. The school serves a significant population of Pell-eligible students (46%), suggesting accessibility alongside these relatively strong outcomes.

The caveat is that both first-year earnings and debt figures come from national benchmarks, not this specific campus's track record. UConn-Hartford's actual graduates might differ. But that four-year earnings figure is actual reported data, and it's compelling—it puts this program ahead of most Connecticut alternatives with available numbers. If your child is serious about healthcare administration and comfortable with a UConn satellite campus, this combination of reported mid-career earnings and estimated manageable debt suggests solid value, though confirming job placement rates and alumni connections would strengthen confidence.
