Spring Hill College

Spring Hill College is a private non-profit institution located in Mobile, Alabama, with an enrollment of approximately 782 students. The college offers programs in a range of fields relevant to technology and data careers, including software development, data science, database administration, DevOps engineering, UX design, AI and machine learning, and epidemiology.

Tuition is $24,054 per year for both in-state and out-of-state students. The average annual net price — the estimated total cost of attendance, including tuition, fees, and living expenses, after grant and scholarship aid is applied — is $20,449. This figure represents what students pay on average once aid is factored in, and it covers more than tuition alone. Roughly 31.6% of students receive Pell Grants, which are need-based federal awards typically available to lower-income students.

Among students who take out federal loans and go on to complete a credential, the median federal loan debt is $27,000. About 43.8% of all students at Spring Hill College borrow federal loans. Of those borrowers, 60.7% are actively reducing their loan balance within three years of entering repayment — meaning their payments are exceeding accruing interest.

Spring Hill College has an acceptance rate of 76.6%, meaning that more than three-quarters of applicants are admitted. The retention rate — the share of first-year students who return for a second year — is 70.2%, and the graduation rate is 52.1%. The graduation rate reflects the share of students who complete a credential within a standard timeframe and does not account for students who may transfer or take longer to finish.

Median earnings 10 years after enrollment are $51,500. This figure is measured across all federally-aided students who enrolled at Spring Hill College, including those who did not complete a credential, so it reflects a broad range of outcomes rather than those of graduates alone. Prospective students should consider this in the context of their intended field and likely program completion when evaluating potential return on investment.
