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.

This page stays available for users because the program appears in federal data, but it is not promoted for search indexing while the reported share is below 1%.

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 ($9,740 above), and ten-year median earnings are higher than the peer average ($50,303 above). That combination produces a B value grade and a top 30% ROI position within this field set.

Questions about this program

How big is the program signal?

Psychology, General accounts for 0.9% of reported programs at Cornell University, which is bigger than 4% of schools in this field set and below the national average concentration. The enrollment proxy is about 144 students when that share is applied to current enrollment.

How should I read the cost number?

Are the earnings major-specific?

No. The $104,043 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $50,303 above the $53,740 average among schools reporting this field, so treat it as an outcomes proxy rather than a department guarantee.
