This is a strong option specifically for students pursuing healthcare careers, given its direct ties to the CoxHealth System in Springfield — that clinical pipeline is a real differentiator for nursing and allied health programs. The 100% graduation rate is impressive for a small school, and a median debt of $18,000 is relatively manageable. The one honest caution: median earnings of $42,700 a decade out are modest, so make sure the specific program you're entering has clear salary upside before committing.
