How big is the program signal?
American Sign Language accounts for 23.3% of reported programs at Gallaudet University, which is bigger than 99% of schools in this field set and 26.1x the national average concentration. The enrollment proxy is about 189 students when that share is applied to current enrollment.
How should I read the cost number?
Gallaudet University's average net price is $15,845 per year, about $63,380 over four years. That is $4,211 above the $11,634 peer average, before your own aid package changes the final bill.
Are the earnings major-specific?
No. The $43,101 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $3,096 below the $46,197 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 Gallaudet University #130 of 150 schools in this field set by school-wide ROI proxy.
