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.

Median earnings settle at $42,759 ten years after entry, close to the typical four-year result. The middle half of the students measured earn between $20,349 and $63,429 ten years after entry — a normal spread, so the median is a fair expectation. On a cost-of-living-adjusted basis the median is worth $45,815, a meaningful premium over the nominal number. Debt at completion runs to a median of $29,773. The debt-to-income ratio of 0.70 is high — debt is large relative to what this degree earns.
