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.
Value among peer schools
Compared with 151 schools that report this field.
This page treats cost and earnings as school-wide context, not department-level outcomes. The reported share is 23.1x the national average concentration; the school-wide net price is higher than the peer average ($20,531 above), and ten-year median earnings are lower than the peer average ($10,850 below). That combination produces a D value grade and a top 100% ROI position within this field set.

How big is the program signal?
Air Transportation accounts for 100% of reported programs at California Aeronautical University, which is bigger than 99% of schools in this field set and 23.1x the national average concentration. The enrollment proxy is about 347 students when that share is applied to current enrollment.
How should I read the cost number?
California Aeronautical University's average net price is $36,126 per year, about $144,504 over four years. That is $20,531 above the $15,595 peer average, before your own aid package changes the final bill.
Are the earnings major-specific?
No. The $38,361 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $10,850 below the $49,211 average among schools reporting this field, so treat it as an outcomes proxy rather than a department guarantee.
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 California Aeronautical University #151 of 151 schools in this field set by school-wide ROI proxy.
