The Lasting Value of an F&M Education

Discover how an investment in F&M's premier liberal arts education is an investment in your future as a world-ready professional in your career of choice.

An Investment That Secures Your Future

F&M is invested in your professional development and success starting the first day you step foot on campus.

Our innovative Career Communities model created by F&M's Center for Career and Professional Development will help you navigate this period of exploration and discovery, transforming your aspirations into meaningful opportunities and valuable hands-on experiences. F&M provides the funding you’ll need to accelerate your professional growth, including Summer Experience Awards to support internships and research opportunities.

Within six months after graduating, 92% of F&M's Class of 2025 were employed or furthering their studies. This is higher than the national average, which is typically in the mid-80% range. In their early careers, our graduates earn a median $76,124 — $20,000 higher than the four-year college midpoint. Our graduates also are at the top of their industries, demonstrating the distinct and measurable advantage of their four years at F&M.

Our commitment to affordability ensures that the average F&M graduate leaves with less debt than graduates from Pennsylvania’s largest major public universities, including Penn State University, University of Pittsburgh, and Temple University. In fact, the vast majority of F&M students receive financial aid that drastically reduces their final tuition bill.

Financial Aid at F&M

We’re dedicated to making an F&M education affordable for all. By offering need-based and merit-based financial aid, we’re able to welcome talented students from all backgrounds.

The F&M Commonwealth Commitment

The Commonwealth Commitment makes an F&M education accessible to talented, high-achieving students from our home state of Pennsylvania, regardless of their socioeconomic background.

Success Beyond F&M

Within six months after graduating, 92% of the Class of 2025 were working or pursuing further studies. This is higher than the national average, which is typically in the mid-80% range. Explore our first destination reports to dive deeper into post-graduate data and outcomes.
