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 248 schools that report this field.

The reported share is 2.1x the national average concentration; the school-wide net price is higher than the peer average ($8,501 above), and ten-year median earnings are higher than the peer average ($37,187 above). That combination produces a B value grade and a top 43% ROI position within this field set.

How big is the program signal?
Statistics accounts for 1.3% of reported programs at Cornell University, which is bigger than 88% of schools in this field set and 2.1x the national average concentration. The enrollment proxy is about 211 students when that share is applied to current enrollment.
How should I read the cost number?
Cornell University's average net price is $28,690 per year, about $114,760 over four years. That is $8,501 above the $20,189 peer average, before your own aid package changes the final bill.
Are the earnings major-specific?
No. The $104,043 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $37,187 above the $66,856 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 University #106 of 248 schools in this field set by school-wide ROI proxy.
