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.
This page stays available for users because the program appears in federal data, but it is not promoted for search indexing while the reported share is below 1%.

How big is the program signal?

The enrollment proxy is about 13 students when that share is applied to current enrollment.

American River College's average net price is $7,999 per year, about $31,996 over four years. That is $751 below the $8,750 peer average, before your own aid package changes the final bill.
Are the earnings major-specific?
No. The $40,162 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $588 below the $40,750 average among schools reporting this field, so treat it as an outcomes proxy rather than a department guarantee.
What should I compare next?
