Calculate the Expected Salary (and Debt) With Your Degree

There are a number of factors that affect how much you earn in the professional world. Still, it’s interesting to know what you can expect to earn with a certain degree, and this tool will give you a general idea. It’ll also tell you what kind of debt load you can expect with your degree.

The interactive calculator comes courtesy of education site GradSense. You plug in your degree information and field of study, and they tell you, on average, what you can expect to earn with that degree and also how much debt you can expect to incur. Their estimates are based on data from sources like the National Postsecondary Student Aid Study, National Center for Education Statistics, U.S. Department of Education.

Again, there are so many different factors that can vary these numbers. For example, location matters: a career in one city might pay quite a bit more than another. Still, this gives you a general idea of what you can expect on a national level. Check it out for yourself at the link below.
