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 (0.2%), school-wide average net price ($16,674), school-wide ten-year median earnings ($59,979), and peer averages from 123 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

How big is the program signal?
Animal Sciences accounts for 0.2% of reported programs at University of Arizona, which is bigger than 7% of schools in this field set and below the national average concentration. The enrollment proxy is about 94 students when that share is applied to current enrollment.
How should I read the cost number?
University of Arizona's average net price is $16,674 per year, about $66,696 over four years. That is $884 above the $15,790 peer average, before your own aid package changes the final bill.
Are the earnings major-specific?
No. The $59,979 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $5,447 above the $54,532 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 University of Arizona #60 of 123 schools in this field set by school-wide ROI proxy.
