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 146 schools that report this field.
This page treats cost and earnings as school-wide context, not department-level outcomes. The reported share is below the national average concentration; the school-wide net price is higher than the peer average ($11,605 above), and ten-year median earnings are lower than the peer average ($11,223 below). That combination produces a D value grade and a top 95% ROI position within this field set.

How big is the program signal?
Legal Research and Advanced Professional Studies accounts for 1.4% of reported programs at Champlain College, which is bigger than 68% of schools in this field set and below the national average concentration. The enrollment proxy is about 38 students when that share is applied to current enrollment.
How should I read the cost number?
Champlain College's average net price is $35,860 per year, about $143,440 over four years. That is $11,605 above the $24,255 peer average, before your own aid package changes the final bill.
Are the earnings major-specific?
No. The $58,386 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $11,223 below the $69,609 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 Champlain College #138 of 146 schools in this field set by school-wide ROI proxy.
