Outcomes
Earnings across the first decade (P25 / median / P75)
College Scorecard institution medians at 1, 6 and 10 years after entry. The P25/P75 band is scaled from the 10-year percentile spread, not separately published at each horizon.
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.
The ten-year median of $83,238 is the number that carries this profile. The spread is wide — $56,723 at the 25th percentile against $122,012 at the 75th — so the median hides very different outcomes depending on major and path. The cost-adjusted equivalent is $78,705, so the nominal salary overstates real purchasing power here. Completers leave with a median debt of $23,250 — unremarkable for a four-year degree. A debt-to-income ratio of 0.28 means borrowing here is proportionate to the payoff.
Economic mobility (Opportunity Insights)
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.
