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 448 schools that report this field.
This page treats cost and earnings as school-wide context, not department-level outcomes. The reported share is above the national average concentration; the school-wide net price is higher than the peer average ($27,090 above), and ten-year median earnings are lower than the peer average ($13,869 below). That combination produces a D value grade and a top 100% ROI position within this field set.
