Parks, Recreation, and Leisure Studies at Northwest Missouri State University

Is Parks, Recreation, and Leisure Studies at Northwest Missouri State University Worth It?

Verdict: AVOID. The numbers do not work for Parks, Recreation, and Leisure Studies at Northwest Missouri State University. With $38,160 in debt and only $42,000 in first-year earnings, the debt-to-earnings ratio of 0.91x puts graduates in a difficult financial position. Even by year five ($57,540), the earning power does not justify the cost. Look at this major at a less expensive school, or consider a major with stronger earnings potential.
