The reported share is 4.3x the national average concentration; the school-wide net price is lower than the peer average ($7,790 below), and ten-year median earnings are lower than the peer average ($27,953 below).

How big is the program signal?
Public Administration accounts for 5.4% of reported programs at Arkansas Baptist College, which is bigger than 97% of schools in this field set and 4.3x the national average concentration. The enrollment proxy is about 19 students when that share is applied to current enrollment.
How should I read the cost number?

Are the earnings major-specific?
No. The $28,418 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $27,953 below the $56,371 average among schools reporting this field, so treat it as an outcomes proxy rather than a department guarantee.
What should I compare next?
