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 (3.6%), school-wide average net price ($40,675), school-wide ten-year median earnings ($83,759), and peer averages from 1,547 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.
Value among peer schools
Compared with 1,547 schools that report this field.

How big is the program signal?

Are the earnings major-specific?
No. The $83,759 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $28,868 above the $54,891 average among schools reporting this field, so treat it as an outcomes proxy rather than a department guarantee.
What should I compare next?
