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%.
Value among peer schools
Compared with 217 schools that report this field.
This page treats cost and earnings as school-wide context, not department-level outcomes. The reported share is above the national average concentration; the school-wide net price is higher than the peer average ($5,708 above), and ten-year median earnings are lower than the peer average ($2,045 below). That combination produces a C value grade and a top 73% ROI position within this field set.

How big is the program signal?
Classics and Classical Languages, Literatures, and Linguistics accounts for 0.7% of reported programs at Furman University, which is bigger than 78% of schools in this field set and above the national average concentration. The enrollment proxy is about 17 students when that share is applied to current enrollment.

Are the earnings major-specific?
No. The $68,635 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $2,045 below the $70,680 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 Furman University #159 of 217 schools in this field set by school-wide ROI proxy.
