The data is in: A UC degree pays off

For those questioning whether a degree is still worth it, UC’s new data holds a clear answer.

Right out of the gate, UC bachelor’s degree holders in California earn more than those who only complete high school. They also out-earn the median earnings for other bachelor’s degree holders in the state. UC alumni continue to out-earn those groups year over year, by bigger and bigger margins.

UC alumni also have less debt — the majority of UC undergrads finish their degrees with ZERO debt. Those who do take student loans owe an average of $17,300 at graduation. That’s $10,000 less than their peers at other public universities nationwide. Lower debt means to greater financial flexibility as UC grads enter the workforce, allowing them to pursue a wider range of career opportunities, continue their education, or navigate a challenging labor market without the same financial pressures as their peers.
