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.
Value among peer schools
Compared with 30 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 ($4,930 below), and ten-year median earnings are lower than the peer average ($629 below). That combination produces a A value grade and a top 23% ROI position within this field set.

How big is the program signal?
Veterinary Medicine accounts for 1.5% of reported programs at Washington State University, which is bigger than 70% of schools in this field set and below the national average concentration. The enrollment proxy is about 314 students when that share is applied to current enrollment.
How should I read the cost number?
Washington State University's average net price is $14,971 per year, about $59,884 over four years. That is $4,930 below the $19,901 peer average, before your own aid package changes the final bill.
Are the earnings major-specific?
No. The $68,905 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $629 below the $69,534 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 Washington State University #7 of 30 schools in this field set by school-wide ROI proxy.
