Chamberlain University-Florida
For-profit College in Jacksonville, FL. Six-year graduation rate 33%. Median 10-year earnings $92,405.

- ✓ Debt-to-income ratio 0.23 — healthy (below the 0.40 threshold)

Admissions
Chamberlain University-Florida admits 91% of applicants — effectively open admission, so the application is a formality rather than a hurdle. Only 11 students applied, so treat these rates as directional — small pools swing sharply between cycles. 100% of admitted students actually enroll, which is a high yield by national standards.

Completion is the problem here: 33% graduate within six years. First-year retention is 63% — the single largest point of attrition on this campus. Retention runs well ahead of completion, which means students are not leaving immediately; they are leaving somewhere between the second year and the finish line. With 33% transferring out, this functions substantially as a stepping stone. A 10:1 ratio points to small classes and accessible faculty.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 839 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Net price lands at $27,481 a year on average, neither cheap nor punishing. The income table below is the number that matters — $27,474 at $0–30k versus $37,182 at $75–110k. Grant aid reaches 65% of students at an average of $4,841. 81% 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.

| $0–30k | $27,474 |
| $30–48k | $32,827 |
