Health and Medical Administrative Services at University of Northwestern Ohio

This program shows relatively modest outcomes even when considering the limited sample size. Starting at $39,929 and climbing to $48,047 by year four, University of Northwestern Ohio's healthcare administration graduates earn about $6,000 less than Ohio's state median and fall below the national average for this field. Among Ohio's 38 programs, this ranks at the 40th percentile—meaning six in ten comparable programs deliver stronger starting salaries. The gap becomes stark when you see top Ohio programs like UC and Ohio State placing graduates above $54,000 from the start.

The debt picture of $31,000 looks manageable on paper—it's right at the national median—but paired with below-average earnings, you're looking at a debt burden that's 78% of first-year income. The 20% earnings growth over four years is encouraging, and by year four the financial picture improves considerably. However, that still leaves graduates trailing peers from stronger programs in the state.

With fewer than 30 graduates in this data sample, these numbers may not be reliable predictors. If your child is set on this school, you'd want verification that recent cohorts are actually achieving these outcomes. Given the state's stronger options at similar debt levels, this would be a program to choose only if location or specific circumstances make Northwestern Ohio uniquely accessible—not as a first choice for healthcare administration training.
