How big is the program signal?

Teaching English or French as a Second or Foreign Language accounts for 1.9% of reported programs at Buena Vista University, which is bigger than 92% of schools in this field set and 2.3x the national average concentration. The enrollment proxy is about 26 students when that share is applied to current enrollment.

How should I read the cost number?

Are the earnings major-specific?

No. The $49,156 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $7,512 below the $56,668 average among schools reporting this field, so treat it as an outcomes proxy rather than a department guarantee.

What should I compare next?
