Median earnings 4 years after graduating; state and U.S. figures are the median of each covered college's graduates in this major. College Scorecard; calculated by EducationGuide.
Cost to finish and years to pay back, by income
Uses SUNY Brockport's school-wide net price (no college reports it by major) and this major's graduate earnings.
| Family income | Net price / yr | Cost to finish | Years to pay back |
|---|---|---|---|
| $0–30k | $10,911 | $46,590 | under 1 year |
| $30–48k | $12,699 | $54,225 | 1.0 years |
| $48–75k | $16,609 | $70,920 | 1.3 years |
| $75–110k | $17,818 | $76,083 | 1.4 years |
| $110k+ | $20,625 | $88,069 | 1.6 years |
Cost to finish = yearly price × 4.3 years, the average time graduates took (43% finished in 4 years; students who entered fall 2017, IPEDS). Years to pay back = cost to finish ÷ the earnings gain: median earnings of Nursing graduates 4 years after graduating ($88,583) minus $34,633 for high school graduates ages 25-34 in NY (Census ACS 2020-2024), a gain of $53,950 a year.

Nursing at New York colleges
Every New York college we cover that reports Nursing graduate earnings, highest first. Net price is the school-wide average after grants. Colleges marked "mostly 2-year" or "bachelor's & associate" award more associate degrees than bachelor's; their bachelor's programs often serve working adults finishing a degree (for example, nurses completing a BSN), so their graduates' earnings can run higher than those of students starting college at 18.
