The reported share is 3.8x the national average concentration; the school-wide net price is higher than the peer average ($8,309 above), and ten-year median earnings are higher than the peer average ($7,493 above).

How big is the program signal?
Natural Resources Conservation and Research accounts for 5.3% of reported programs at The University of the South, which is bigger than 96% of schools in this field set and 3.8x the national average concentration. The enrollment proxy is about 86 students when that share is applied to current enrollment.
How should I read the cost number?
The University of the South's average net price is $27,872 per year, about $111,488 over four years. That is $8,309 above the $19,563 peer average, before your own aid package changes the final bill.
Are the earnings major-specific?
No. The $64,911 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $7,493 above the $57,418 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 The University of the South #668 of 872 schools in this field set by school-wide ROI proxy.
