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 60 schools that report this field.
This page treats cost and earnings as school-wide context, not department-level outcomes. The reported share is 2.7x the national average concentration; the school-wide net price is higher than the peer average ($1,116 above), and ten-year median earnings are lower than the peer average ($17,804 below). That combination produces a D value grade and a top 90% ROI position within this field set.

How big is the program signal?
English Language and Literature/Letters, Other accounts for 3.4% of reported programs at Hollins University, which is bigger than 88% of schools in this field set and 2.7x the national average concentration. The enrollment proxy is about 23 students when that share is applied to current enrollment.

Are the earnings major-specific?
No. The $40,075 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $17,804 below the $57,879 average among schools reporting this field, so treat it as an outcomes proxy rather than a department guarantee.
What should I compare next?
