Years to pay back = cost to finish ÷ the earnings gain: median earnings of Entrepreneurship graduates 4 years after graduating ($87,851) minus $34,633 for high school graduates ages 25-34 in NY (Census ACS 2020-2024), a gain of $53,218 a year.

Entrepreneurship at New York colleges

Every New York college we cover that reports Entrepreneurship 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.
