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.

Compared with 61 schools that report this field.
This page treats cost and earnings as school-wide context, not department-level outcomes. The reported share is 5.1x the national average concentration; the school-wide net price is lower than the peer average ($1,257 below), and ten-year median earnings are lower than the peer average ($5,669 below). That combination produces a B value grade and a top 72% ROI position within this field set.

How should I read the cost number?

Are the earnings major-specific?
No. The $56,416 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $5,669 below the $62,085 average among schools reporting this field, so treat it as an outcomes proxy rather than a department guarantee.
What should I compare next?
