About Oviedo, Florida

Oviedo is a city in Seminole County, Florida, United States. Up through the early 19th century, the area encompassing Oviedo was sparsely populated save for a few Seminoles and African-American freemen who associated with the Seminole tribe, known as Black Seminoles, in what was then Spanish Florida. The Nelson and Company Historic District, the R.W. Estes Celery Company Precooler Historic District, the First Methodist Church of Oviedo, and several houses in Oviedo are listed in the National Register of Historic Places. (Wikipedia)

Is it worth it?

A rough return-on-investment read from what graduates earn versus what they borrow.

Median earnings (10 years): $26,897
Typical debt at graduation: $13,000
Debt vs. one year's pay: 48%
Out-earn a HS grad: 31%

Typical debt would take roughly 4.8 years to repay at about a tenth of median earnings.

Solid value

A reasonable return: earnings comfortably clear the debt over a few years for most students who finish.

Earnings are the College Scorecard median for former students (working, not enrolled) 10 years after entry — not a guarantee, and they vary a lot by major. Debt is the median federal loan balance at graduation.
