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 156 schools that report this field.
This page treats cost and earnings as school-wide context, not department-level outcomes. The reported share is 6.4x the national average concentration; the school-wide net price is lower than the peer average ($2,395 below), and ten-year median earnings are lower than the peer average ($7,805 below). That combination produces a B value grade and a top 55% ROI position within this field set.

How big is the program signal?

Are the earnings major-specific?

What should I compare next?
