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.
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 107 schools that report this field.
This page treats cost and earnings as school-wide context, not department-level outcomes. The reported share is below the national average concentration; the school-wide net price is lower than the peer average ($1,706 below), and ten-year median earnings are higher than the peer average ($11,351 above). That combination produces a A value grade and a top 22% ROI position within this field set.

How big is the program signal?
Plant Sciences accounts for 0.5% of reported programs at University of Georgia, which is bigger than 45% of schools in this field set and below the national average concentration. The enrollment proxy is about 154 students when that share is applied to current enrollment.
How should I read the cost number?

Are the earnings major-specific?
No. The $68,726 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $11,351 above the $57,375 average among schools reporting this field, so treat it as an outcomes proxy rather than a department guarantee.
What should I compare next?
