Questions about this program

How big is the program signal?

Biotechnology accounts for 1.4% of reported programs at Marywood University, which is bigger than 92% of schools in this field set and 2.4x the national average concentration. The enrollment proxy is about 25 students when that share is applied to current enrollment.

How should I read the cost number?

Marywood University's average net price is $23,388 per year, about $93,552 over four years. That is $6,198 above the $17,190 peer average, before your own aid package changes the final bill.

Are the earnings major-specific?

No. The $55,817 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $3,234 below the $59,051 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 Marywood University #152 of 174 schools in this field set by school-wide ROI proxy.
