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.
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 17 schools that report this field.
This page treats cost and earnings as school-wide context, not department-level outcomes. The reported share is below the national average concentration; the school-wide net price is lower than the peer average ($4,924 below), and ten-year median earnings are higher than the peer average ($2,916 above). That combination produces a A+ value grade and a top 6% ROI position within this field set.

How big is the program signal?
Library and Archives Assisting accounts for 0.4% of reported programs at Pasadena City College, which is bigger than 35% of schools in this field set and below the national average concentration. The enrollment proxy is about 90 students when that share is applied to current enrollment.
How should I read the cost number?
Pasadena City College's average net price is $3,864 per year, about $15,456 over four years. That is $4,924 below the $8,788 peer average, before your own aid package changes the final bill.
Are the earnings major-specific?
No. The $43,937 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $2,916 above the $41,021 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 Pasadena City College #1 of 17 schools in this field set by school-wide ROI proxy.
