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 $54,914 are unremarkable — neither the reason to come nor the reason to stay away. The spread is wide — $31,694 at the 25th percentile against $83,872 at the 75th — so the median hides very different outcomes depending on major and path. The cost-adjusted equivalent is $51,317, so the nominal salary overstates real purchasing power here. Completers leave with a median debt of $20,891 — unremarkable for a four-year degree. A debt-to-income ratio of 0.38 sits right at the threshold where borrowing starts to constrain choices.
