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. That median masks a wide range, from $39,834 at the 25th percentile to $88,954 at the 75th — what you study matters more than where. Regional prices work in graduates' favor here: the cost-adjusted equivalent of that median is $65,117. Students who finish carry a median of $19,976 in debt. The debt-to-income ratio of 0.33 is comfortable — debt is a small fraction of what graduates earn.

Census PSEO, bachelor's degree recipients — earnings measured 1, 5 and 10 years after graduation, unlike the Scorecard figures above. The all-fields institution total is published separately and is not one of the rows above. A cohort label covers a pooling window of three or five graduating years, which PSEO does not publish per cell.
