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.

How big is the program signal?
Accounting and Related Services accounts for 5% of reported programs at Central College, which is bigger than 90% of schools in this field set and 1.9x the national average concentration. The enrollment proxy is about 54 students when that share is applied to current enrollment.
How should I read the cost number?
Central College's average net price is $23,377 per year, about $93,508 over four years. That is $6,561 above the $16,816 peer average, before your own aid package changes the final bill.
Are the earnings major-specific?
No. The $54,317 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $3,659 above the $50,658 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 Central College #1,239 of 1,603 schools in this field set by school-wide ROI proxy.
