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 28 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 higher than the peer average ($285 above), and ten-year median earnings are lower than the peer average ($14,686 below). That combination produces a C value grade and a top 71% ROI position within this field set.

How big is the program signal?
Operations Research accounts for 0.2% of reported programs at Saint Louis University, which is bigger than 46% of schools in this field set and below the national average concentration. The enrollment proxy is about 15 students when that share is applied to current enrollment.
How should I read the cost number?
Saint Louis University's average net price is $24,398 per year, about $97,592 over four years. That is $285 above the $24,113 peer average, before your own aid package changes the final bill.
Are the earnings major-specific?
No. The $70,783 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $14,686 below the $85,469 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 Saint Louis University #20 of 28 schools in this field set by school-wide ROI proxy.
