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.
Value among peer schools
Compared with 120 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 ($11,239 below), and ten-year median earnings are lower than the peer average ($10,860 below). That combination produces a A+ value grade and a top 2% ROI position within this field set.

The enrollment proxy is about 166 students when that share is applied to current enrollment.

Are the earnings major-specific?
No. The $36,788 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $10,860 below the $47,648 average among schools reporting this field, so treat it as an outcomes proxy rather than a department guarantee.
What should I compare next?
