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. For regulated fields, this data also does not prove state licensure eligibility, clinical placement quality, board results, certification outcomes, or exam pass rates.
Evidence used here: federal program-share data (0%), school-wide average net price ($12,671), school-wide ten-year median earnings ($40,060), and peer averages from 87 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. 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 87 schools that report this field.
The answer is a value-screen grade of B, not a verified department verdict. The reported share is below the national average concentration; the school-wide net price is higher than the peer average ($2,333 above), and ten-year median earnings are lower than the peer average ($2,977 below). Together, those evidence points place Southwestern College in the top 82% ROI position within this field set.

Are the earnings major-specific?

Does this show licensure exam pass rates?
No. EduGradify does not have program-level board, certification, state licensure, clinical placement, or exam pass-rate data for this listing. If this field leads to a regulated credential, confirm Southwestern College's current approval status and published outcomes with the department and the relevant state licensing body.
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 Southwestern College #71 of 87 schools in this field set by school-wide ROI proxy.
