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.
Evidence used here: federal program-share data (0.4%), school-wide average net price ($37,050), school-wide ten-year median earnings ($82,509), and peer averages from 1,165 schools reporting a positive signal in this field. Evidence not included: department-level salary, placement rate, course quality, licensure eligibility, certification, or exam pass-rate outcomes. This page stays available for users because the program appears in federal data, but it is not promoted for search indexing while the reported share is below 1%.
Value among peer schools
Compared with 1,165 schools that report this field.
The answer is a value-screen grade of C, not a verified department verdict. The reported share is below the national average concentration; the school-wide net price is higher than the peer average ($17,659 above), and ten-year median earnings are higher than the peer average ($25,204 above). Together, those evidence points place New York University in the top 82% ROI position within this field set.

How big is the program signal?
Chemistry accounts for 0.4% of reported programs at New York University, which is bigger than 28% of schools in this field set and below the national average concentration. The enrollment proxy is about 103 students when that share is applied to current enrollment.
How should I read the cost number?
New York University's average net price is $37,050 per year, about $148,200 over four years. That is $17,659 above the $19,391 peer average, before your own aid package changes the final bill.
Are the earnings major-specific?
No. The $82,509 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $25,204 above the $57,305 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 New York University #957 of 1,165 schools in this field set by school-wide ROI proxy.
