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 51 schools that report this field.
This page treats cost and earnings as school-wide context, not department-level outcomes. The reported share is 4.4x the national average concentration; the school-wide net price is lower than the peer average ($644 below), and ten-year median earnings are lower than the peer average ($11,626 below). That combination produces a C value grade and a top 75% ROI position within this field set.

How big is the program signal?
Intelligence, Command Control and Information Operations accounts for 13.2% of reported programs at Mercyhurst University, which is bigger than 96% of schools in this field set and 4.4x the national average concentration. The enrollment proxy is about 290 students when that share is applied to current enrollment.
How should I read the cost number?
Mercyhurst University's average net price is $19,444 per year, about $77,776 over four years. That is $644 below the $20,088 peer average, before your own aid package changes the final bill.
Are the earnings major-specific?
No. The $47,452 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $11,626 below the $59,078 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 Mercyhurst University #38 of 51 schools in this field set by school-wide ROI proxy.
