Rasmussen University-Florida
For-profit College in Ocala, FL. Six-year graduation rate 42%. Median 10-year earnings $39,080.
Ten-year median earnings of $39,080 are on the low side, which raises the bar for what this degree needs to cost. The six-year graduation rate is 42%, meaning about three in five students who start do not finish. Graduates carry a median of $20,899 in debt — in line with the national norm.
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
Academics
42% graduate within six years — average, but that average still hides a large group who do not. First-year retention of 100% shows the cohort holds together through the hardest year. That gap between coming back and finishing is where this school loses people — after the first year, not during it. A 10:1 ratio points to small classes and accessible faculty. Being a for-profit four-year institution is the single most useful context for these numbers — the sector's spread is wide enough that the school-level figures matter more than usual.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 3,034 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Students pay an average of $21,432 annually once grants are applied. The gap between the $0–30k and $110k+ bands is narrow ($20,404 versus $25,557), meaning aid is not strongly need-weighted. About 79% get grants averaging $6,133, so plan on the possibility of paying closer to full price. Borrowing is widespread: 83% take federal loans.
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 | $20,404 |
| $30–48k | $21,845 |
| $48–75k | $21,335 |
