Miller-Motte College-Macon
For-profit College in Macon, GA. Six-year graduation rate 13%. Median 10-year earnings $31,102.
Ten-year median earnings of $31,102 are on the low side, which raises the bar for what this degree needs to cost. Completion is the weak point: 13% graduate within six years. Median debt at graduation is $15,917, a light load against those earnings.
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
- ! Graduation rate 13% — below national average
Academics
Only 13% finish within six years, so roughly nine in ten students leave without the credential. 68% of full-time first-years come back for year two, so about one in three are gone before sophomore year. The distance between those two figures is the part worth noticing — students return for a second year at a much higher rate than they graduate, so attrition here is spread across the middle years rather than concentrated in the first. A 18:1 ratio is unremarkable; expect a mix of lecture halls and seminars.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 311 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Average net price after grant aid is $21,074 a year — mid-range for a four-year institution. Net price varies modestly by income — $20,763 at $0–30k against $22,316 at $75–110k — so the average is a fair guide for most families. 92% of students get grant aid averaging $6,716, so the published price is a poor guide to what most pay. Most students borrow — 88% take federal loans to cover the gap.
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 | $20,763 |
