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 179 schools that report this field.

The reported share is 4.9x the national average concentration; the school-wide net price is lower than the peer average ($12,664 below), and ten-year median earnings are lower than the peer average ($14,187 below).

How should I read the cost number?

Are the earnings major-specific?
No. The $36,115 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $14,187 below the $50,302 average among schools reporting this field, so treat it as an outcomes proxy rather than a department guarantee.
What should I compare next?
