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 150 schools that report this field.
This page treats cost and earnings as school-wide context, not department-level outcomes. The reported share is below the national average concentration; the school-wide net price is higher than the peer average ($731 above), and ten-year median earnings are lower than the peer average ($4,327 below). That combination produces a C value grade and a top 73% ROI position within this field set.

How big is the program signal?
Architectural Sciences and Technology accounts for 1.2% of reported programs at Kansas State University, which is bigger than 65% of schools in this field set and below the national average concentration. The enrollment proxy is about 185 students when that share is applied to current enrollment.
How should I read the cost number?

Are the earnings major-specific?
No. The $57,262 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $4,327 below the $61,589 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 Kansas State University #109 of 150 schools in this field set by school-wide ROI proxy.
