Value among peer schools
Compared with 266 schools that report this field.
This page treats cost and earnings as school-wide context, not department-level outcomes. The reported share is 4.4x the national average concentration; the school-wide net price is lower than the peer average ($10,373 below), and ten-year median earnings are lower than the peer average ($16,008 below). That combination produces a C value grade and a top 20% ROI position within this field set.

How big is the program signal?

Are the earnings major-specific?
No. The $38,275 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $16,008 below the $54,283 average among schools reporting this field, so treat it as an outcomes proxy rather than a department guarantee.
What should I compare next?
