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 (2.3%), school-wide average net price ($9,148), school-wide ten-year median earnings ($30,284), and peer averages from 143 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 143 schools that report this field.

The reported share is below the national average concentration; the school-wide net price is higher than the peer average ($1,740 above), and ten-year median earnings are lower than the peer average ($7,875 below). Together, those evidence points place Southeastern Community College in the top 85% ROI position within this field set.
