College Scorecard. Earnings are measured ten years after entry across students who received federal aid — completers and non-completers alike — not ten years after graduation.

Ten-year median earnings of $34,996 trail most four-year institutions. With the 25th percentile at $19,421 and the 75th at $53,296, outcomes here are about as varied as anywhere else. Regional prices work in graduates' favor here: the cost-adjusted equivalent of that median is $36,344. Students who finish carry a median of $16,750 in debt. The debt-to-income ratio is 0.48, around the commonly cited healthy ceiling — manageable, with little margin.

Opportunity Insights, students born 1980–1991 — a track record, not a forecast for today's entering class. The mobility rate is a share of all students (bottom-quintile origin and top-quintile outcome); the success rate is the share of bottom-quintile students alone who reach the top. They answer different questions and the second is always the larger number.

Earnings percentiles by field (Census PSEO)

One row per field and graduating cohort. Rows that share a field are different graduating classes, not repeats.

Census PSEO, bachelor's degree recipients — earnings measured 1, 5 and 10 years after graduation, unlike the Scorecard figures above. The all-fields institution total is published separately and is not one of the rows above. A cohort label covers a pooling window of three or five graduating years, which PSEO does not publish per cell.
