American National University-Louisville
For-profit College in Louisville, KY. Six-year graduation rate 50%. Median 10-year earnings $28,188.
Ten-year median earnings of $28,188 are on the low side, which raises the bar for what this degree needs to cost. Six-year completion sits at 50%, near the national average for undergraduate institutions. Debt at graduation runs to a median of $23,618, neither a bargain nor a burden.
Earnings: College Scorecard, median ten years after entry across students who received federal aid — completers and non-completers alike.
- ✓ 3-year loan default 0.0% — below national benchmark
- ! Debt-to-income ratio 0.84 — elevated (above 0.60)

Academics
Six-year completion sits at 50%, meaning about one in two students who enroll leave without finishing. 18% transfer out. IPEDS does not follow them, so whether they finished elsewhere is not recorded either way. A 26:1 ratio means students need to be deliberate about getting faculty time. As a for-profit four-year institution, outcomes here deserve a harder look than the sector average suggests: for-profit institutions vary enormously, and the sector's aggregate numbers hide both strong and very weak performers. This is a small school — 240 undergraduates — so cohorts are tight and the program list is necessarily short.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 229 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Average net price after grant aid is $16,519 a year — mid-range for a four-year institution. Income makes less difference than usual: $16,977 at $0–30k, $16,396 at $75–110k. Most students get help: 86% receive grants worth $7,071 on average. 87% of students borrow federally, so debt is the norm rather than the exception.
Entering first-year students
A different, smaller group than the rates above: full-time students in their first year of college anywhere. The grant series here also excludes the "other sources" counted in the all-undergraduate figure, so the two are not comparable.

Net price by family income
The same students as the headline above, limited to those who received Title IV federal aid — a narrower group, with a lower overall average. IPEDS publishes no combined figure across these bands, so they should not be averaged into one.
| Family income band | Average net price |
|---|---|
| $0–30k | $16,977 |
| $30–48k | $19,093 |
| $48–75k | $14,394 |
| $75–110k | $16,396 |
