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 28 schools that report this field.
This page treats cost and earnings as school-wide context, not department-level outcomes. The reported share is 2.2x the national average concentration; the school-wide net price is higher than the peer average ($2,140 above), and ten-year median earnings are lower than the peer average ($14,760 below). That combination produces a C value grade and a top 86% ROI position within this field set.

How big is the program signal?
Applied Statistics accounts for 1.1% of reported programs at Cornell College, which is bigger than 89% of schools in this field set and 2.2x the national average concentration. The enrollment proxy is about 12 students when that share is applied to current enrollment.
How should I read the cost number?
Cornell College's average net price is $23,634 per year, about $94,536 over four years. That is $2,140 above the $21,494 peer average, before your own aid package changes the final bill.
Are the earnings major-specific?
No. The $53,460 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $14,760 below the $68,220 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 Cornell College #24 of 28 schools in this field set by school-wide ROI proxy.
