The Worst Colleges for Bachelor’s Degree Payoff, Ranked

Arizona College of Nursing’s Southfield campus serves students in the Detroit-area market who are pursuing a BSN. The school emphasizes a nursing-focused model, with multiple session starts, clinical preparation, high-tech labs, and a pathway designed for students who want to move directly toward registered nursing careers.

The 10-year average payoff of -$13,000 is below zero, which may reflect tuition costs, student debt, and the time it takes to complete licensing and settle into nursing work. Still, nursing has clearer career demand than many fields, so graduates who pass boards and stay employed may improve their long-term outlook.
