Value among peer schools
Compared with 150 schools that report this field.
This page treats cost and earnings as school-wide context, not department-level outcomes. The reported share is above the national average concentration; the school-wide net price is higher than the peer average ($31,115 above), and ten-year median earnings are lower than the peer average ($21,438 below). That combination produces a D value grade and a top 100% ROI position within this field set.
