Outcomes
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 $14,923 — low enough that cost and debt deserve extra scrutiny. The quartile range runs $8,438 to $31,294, typical for an undergraduate institution. On a cost-of-living-adjusted basis the median is worth $16,918, a meaningful premium over the nominal number. Only 0.0% of borrowers default within three years — graduates are repaying. The 40-year net present value from Georgetown CEW is $423,000, placing it 4,354 of 4,419 — worth more than the ten-year snapshot alone.
