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 492 schools that report this field.

The reported share is above the national average concentration; the school-wide net price is higher than the peer average ($7,959 above), and ten-year median earnings are higher than the peer average ($28,633 above). That combination produces a B value grade and a top 51% ROI position within this field set.

How big is the program signal?
Film/Video and Photographic Arts accounts for 2.1% of reported programs at Colgate University, which is bigger than 82% of schools in this field set and above the national average concentration. The enrollment proxy is about 67 students when that share is applied to current enrollment.

Are the earnings major-specific?
No. The $85,139 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $28,633 above the $56,506 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 Colgate University #250 of 492 schools in this field set by school-wide ROI proxy.
