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 43 schools that report this field.
This page treats cost and earnings as school-wide context, not department-level outcomes. The reported share is 2.1x the national average concentration; the school-wide net price is lower than the peer average ($4,248 below), and ten-year median earnings are lower than the peer average ($2,871 below). That combination produces a B value grade and a top 49% ROI position within this field set.

How big is the program signal?
Systems Science and Theory accounts for 2.1% of reported programs at La Salle University, which is bigger than 84% of schools in this field set and 2.1x the national average concentration. The enrollment proxy is about 41 students when that share is applied to current enrollment.
How should I read the cost number?
La Salle University's average net price is $19,409 per year, about $77,636 over four years. That is $4,248 below the $23,657 peer average, before your own aid package changes the final bill.
Are the earnings major-specific?
No. The $67,416 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $2,871 below the $70,287 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 La Salle University #21 of 43 schools in this field set by school-wide ROI proxy.
