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 years after entry the median student earns $60,409, an outcome that puts this school in the top tier for undergraduate earnings. The spread is wide — $39,834 at the 25th percentile against $88,954 at the 75th — so the median hides very different outcomes depending on major and path. On a cost-of-living-adjusted basis the median is worth $65,117, a meaningful premium over the nominal number. Students who finish carry a median of $19,976 in debt. A debt-to-income ratio of 0.33 means borrowing here is proportionate to the payoff.
