How big is the program signal?
Clinical, Counseling and Applied Psychology accounts for 3.6% of reported programs at Northwestern University, which is bigger than 78% of schools in this field set and above the national average concentration. The enrollment proxy is about 327 students when that share is applied to current enrollment.
How should I read the cost number?

Are the earnings major-specific?
No. The $89,363 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $32,184 above the $57,179 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 Northwestern University #282 of 642 schools in this field set by school-wide ROI proxy.
