Questions about this program

How big is the program signal?

Community Organization and Advocacy accounts for 2.2% of reported programs at Central Michigan University, which is bigger than 88% of schools in this field set and 2.1x the national average concentration. The enrollment proxy is about 224 students when that share is applied to current enrollment.

How should I read the cost number?

Central Michigan University's average net price is $17,597 per year, about $70,388 over four years. That is $874 below the $18,471 peer average, before your own aid package changes the final bill.

Are the earnings major-specific?

No. The $55,874 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $193 below the $56,067 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 Michigan University #50 of 96 schools in this field set by school-wide ROI proxy.
