Randall University
Moore, Oklahoma · Private Nonprofit · 57.9% acceptance rate
ROI Score: 18/100 · Below Benchmark
Data: 2024-25 College Scorecard release
Randall University scores 18 (Below Benchmark) on the CampusROI scale. The 26.4% completion rate means nearly three in four entering students do not graduate within the standard window. The 29.1-year payback period is not a realistic financial projection - it signals that median earnings relative to cost are disconnected. Average 6-year earnings are $30,500. Median debt of $22,626 against $30,500 in earnings produces a debt-to-earnings ratio of 0.742. The repayment rate at one year is 70.3%, which is relatively high given the weak earnings, but deteriorates to 53.6% by year seven - meaning more graduates fall behind on loans over time rather than getting ahead. The university enrolls just 267 students in Moore, Oklahoma. Net price of $16,383 is the lowest rate for this institution's income bands, and the 37.4% Pell rate reflects lower-income enrollment. Only one program has Scorecard data: Liberal Arts and Sciences (0 graduates counted, $38,244 year-one earnings, D-grade ROI). The Randall University profile represents a high-risk financial commitment based on available Scorecard data.

The Full Financial Picture
The first number you'll see is the sticker price: $17,714/year, which covers tuition and fees only. After grants, scholarships, and aid, the average student here pays a net price of $16,383/year, or roughly $65,532 over four years. That's the number to plan around.
What you actually pay depends a lot on what your family earns. Families making under $30,000/year pay an average of $19,216/year here, while families earning over $110,000 pay $17,483/year.
Among graduates who borrowed, the median federal loan debt from this school is $22,626, which works out to about $240 a month on the standard 10-year repayment plan. Our debt-to-earnings ratio divides that debt by average earnings six years after entry ($30,500) and comes to 0.74, under 1.0, meaning median debt is less than a full year of those earnings.
Net Price by Family Income
What families actually pay after grants and scholarships, by income bracket.
| Family Income | Avg Net Price/Year |
|---|---|
| $0 - $30,000 | $19,216 |
| $30,001 - $48,000 | $15,639 |
| $48,001 - $75,000 | $14,832 |
| $75,001 - $110,000 | $13,726 |
| $110,001+ | $17,483 |
Cost by Income Bracket Explained
Lower-income families (under $30K)
Families in the $0-$30,000 bracket pay $19,216 per year at Randall University - the highest net price in the income schedule, which inverts the expected aid structure. This means Randall's lowest-income students pay more than all other income bands. For a school with a 26.4% completion rate and $30,500 average earnings, this represents an extremely high-risk financial commitment for the families least able to absorb it.
Middle-income families ($30K-$110K)
The $48,001-$75,000 bracket pays $14,832 per year - among the lower rates in the income schedule. The $75,001-$110,000 bracket pays $13,726. The aid model at Randall is unusual: it provides its most favorable pricing to middle- and upper-middle-income students rather than the lowest-income ones. The inverted structure across income bands is a notable planning concern.
Higher-income families ($110K+)
Families earning $110,000+ pay $17,483 per year at Randall. The cost structure across income bands is flat and low in absolute terms, but against a 26.4% completion rate and $30,500 average earnings, even $17,000 per year produces a very poor expected return.

Program Analysis
Why these programs deliver their earnings outcomes.
Liberal Arts and Sciences
Liberal Arts and Sciences is the only program with Scorecard data at Randall: 0 graduates counted in the reporting period, $38,244 year-one earnings, $41,315 at year four, D-grade ROI (debt-to-earnings 0.805) with median debt of $30,786. The 0 graduate count for this period means the earnings data comes from a very small historical cohort and should be treated as low-confidence. Debt of $30,786 against $38,244 in year-one earnings is a difficult starting position for any graduate from a small Baptist liberal arts program.

The Verdict: Below Benchmark Under Our Scoring
Under our methodology, Randall University scores 18/100, which falls in the Below Benchmark tier (below 45). At a net price of $16,383 per year, with typical graduate earnings of $42,051 ten years after entry, we estimate the payback period at about 29.1 years. In our view that makes the financial case a hard one to make on the numbers alone, but those numbers are averages: your major, your aid package and what you want from a degree all change the picture, so run your own numbers before you commit.
What to keep an eye on: weak earnings relative to cost, its 26.4% graduation rate, a debt-to-earnings ratio of 0.74 (median across the schools we score: 0.61), a three-year loan repayment rate of 62.9% (median across the schools we score: 73.6%), a long payback period.
Median debt of $22,626 among graduates who borrowed, against average earnings of $30,500 six years after entry, gives a debt-to-earnings ratio of 0.74. That is under 1.0 (a full year of those earnings); the median across the schools we score is about 0.61. Your major - and how much you borrow - really matters.
