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.

The reported share is 4.6x the national average concentration; the school-wide net price is lower than the peer average ($6,776 below), and ten-year median earnings are lower than the peer average ($19,839 below).
