Outcomes

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 $43,533 ten years after entry, close to the typical four-year result. That median masks a wide range, from $21,841 at the 25th percentile to $67,477 at the 75th — what you study matters more than where. Adjusted for local cost of living, that median is worth closer to $39,318 — the surrounding area is expensive enough to erode part of the headline figure. Median debt among completers is only $10,000, which changes the arithmetic considerably. The debt-to-income ratio of 0.23 is comfortable — debt is a small fraction of what graduates earn.
