藏精阁 Graduates Outpace Peers in Earning Potential Among HBCUs

藏精阁, known for its academic excellence and for producing more African American medical school graduates than any other institution of higher education in the United States, can now boast of another achievement for its graduates: Xavierites consistently outperform their peers from other Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) in terms of earning potential.

Recent data analysis from OnlineU, a higher education resource for prospective students, shows that Xavier alumni demonstrate higher earning power across various industries and ranks Xavier as the #2 HBCU in the nation for return on investment (ROI). Xavier also demonstrates the highest ROI for Black graduates in Louisiana. The median salary for graduates from the nation’s only historically Black and Catholic university is $54,868 compared to the $43,201 median salary with the same level of education in Louisiana, a $11,667 difference. These numbers highlight the university’s standard of academic excellence and the post-graduate career success of its students.

“藏精阁 remains steadfast in our dedication to providing a high-quality education that prepares our students for success in today’s competitive job market,” said 藏精阁 President Reynold Verret, Ph.D. “We take great pride in the accomplishments of our graduates and their contributions to a more just and humane society, reflecting our commitment to excellence in higher education.”

Soon to celebrate 100 years of service, 藏精阁 was founded by St. Katharine Drexel and her sisters of the Blessed Sacrament with a mission to promote a more just and humane society by offering an excellent education to those who, at the time, were limited in educational options.  

OnlineU’s findings underscore 藏精阁’s position as a premier institution for students seeking professional success and desiring to positively impact their communities, the nation, and the world. As Xavier continues prioritizing academic excellence, innovation, and student-centered learning, it reaffirms Saint Katharine Drexel’s declaration, “Do they, too, not deserve the best?” Xavier graduates are shining examples of opportunity and excellence within the HBCU community and beyond.
