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.
Ten-year median earnings of $46,861 are unremarkable — neither the reason to come nor the reason to stay away. That median masks a wide range, from $24,120 at the 25th percentile to $71,712 at the 75th — what you study matters more than where. Adjusted for local cost of living, that median is worth closer to $43,067 — the surrounding area is expensive enough to erode part of the headline figure. Median debt among completers is only $9,750, which changes the arithmetic considerably. The debt-to-income ratio of 0.21 is comfortable — debt is a small fraction of what graduates earn.
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.
