55% of BYU BS degree grads earn less than 30K in their first year after
graduation and only 4% earned over 60K (compare that to almost twice as
many
from UVSC)
Quote: "UVSC graduates overwhelmingly lead the way in terms of employment
with 83.9% of its graduates in the workforce and 78.4% employed full-time.
The next highest was USU with 74.7% percent in the labor force. USU and
UVSC
bachelor's graduates were employed at a significantly higher rate than the
other schools, while BYU bachelor's graduates were employed full-time at
the
lowest rate [57%]".
Unemployed people generally make less than $30k. Maybe it is simply the
case that far more BYU grads simply don't seek full-time employment. Stay
at home Moms or part-time working Moms and the like. This was mentioned
briefly in the last paragraph of the report, but I didn't look closely
enough to see if the numbers were already adjusted for such things.
