Alaska Pacific University offers a unique educational environment, emphasizing a hands-on approach to learning in the beautiful Alaskan setting. The Parks, Recreation, and Leisure Studies program will prepare graduates for a career in outdoor and recreational management, but the low starting salary and high debt payoff period may challenge financial stability in the long run.
Warning: It's better to just get ANY job than to join this program!
This program has a negative lifetime value - that means that your salary won't go up enough to cover the costs + debt of going!
