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.
A decade after entry, the median student earns $20,156 — low enough that cost and debt deserve extra scrutiny. The middle half of the students measured earn between $8,715 and $34,629 ten years after entry — a normal spread, so the median is a fair expectation. Adjusted for local cost of living, that median is effectively $22,356 — the surrounding area is cheap enough that the salary stretches further than the raw figure suggests. Median debt among completers is only $11,600, which changes the arithmetic considerably. At 0.58, graduates carry more debt than these earnings comfortably support.
