College Scorecard reports school-wide earnings and price, not per-major outcomes for individual colleges. Program share is a concentration signal, not a promise of department quality. Use it as a proxy, then verify department-level outcomes with the school. For criminal justice and related law-enforcement paths, this data does not prove police academy eligibility, state POST certification, background-check readiness, or employer hiring outcomes.

Evidence used here: federal program-share data (7.3%), school-wide average net price ($11,898), school-wide ten-year median earnings ($40,674), and peer averages from 1,346 schools reporting a positive signal in this field. Evidence not included: department-level salary, placement rate, course quality, licensure eligibility, certification, or exam pass-rate outcomes.

Questions about this program

How big is the program signal?

How should I read the cost number?

Albany State University's average net price is $11,898 per year, about $47,592 over four years. That is $3,198 below the $15,096 peer average, before your own aid package changes the final bill.

Are the earnings major-specific?

No. The $40,674 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $6,690 below the $47,364 average among schools reporting this field, so treat it as an outcomes proxy rather than a department guarantee.

Does this show Criminal Justice licensure or pass rates?

No. EduGradify does not have police academy, state POST, certification, placement, or department pass-rate data for this listing. Criminal justice paths vary by state and employer, so verify whether Albany State University treats the field as academic, pre-law, corrections, forensic, or tied to an approved academy pathway.

What should I compare next?

Start with program share, net price after aid, graduation rate, location, and whether the department publishes placement or licensure outcomes. EduGradify ranks Albany State University #672 of 1,346 schools in this field set by school-wide ROI proxy.
