About This School

Springfield College-Regional Online and Continuing Education is a private nonprofit institution located in Springfield, Massachusetts with approximately 176 undergraduate students enrolled. Typical graduates earn $48,500 within 10 years of enrollment.

This program is best suited for working adults or career-changers who need the flexibility of online and continuing education from an accredited nonprofit institution, rather than traditional-age students seeking a full campus experience. The debt-to-earnings picture is actually reasonable here — graduates carry a median debt of $26,250 and go on to earn a median of $48,500 ten years out, which puts them in a manageable position compared to many private colleges where debt routinely outpaces income. That said, with only 176 undergraduate students enrolled, this is a very small operation, and families should ask pointed questions about advising support, program completion rates, and career services, since limited scale can sometimes mean limited resources. Before applying, I'd strongly encourage requesting graduation rate data directly from the school, as it wasn't readily available — and that number matters enormously for an online continuing education program where life interruptions are common. If you're a motivated self-starter who needs credentials on a flexible timeline and wants to avoid the debt traps of larger private schools, this could be a sensible fit, but do your homework on outcomes for your specific program before committing.
