How big is the program signal?
Non-Professional Legal Studies accounts for 3.9% of reported programs at Suffolk University, which is bigger than 97% of schools in this field set and 3.9x the national average concentration. The enrollment proxy is about 166 students when that share is applied to current enrollment.
How should I read the cost number?
Suffolk University's average net price is $29,618 per year, about $118,472 over four years. That is $10,481 above the $19,137 peer average, before your own aid package changes the final bill.
Are the earnings major-specific?
No. The $67,506 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $12,984 above the $54,522 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 Suffolk University #132 of 190 schools in this field set by school-wide ROI proxy.
