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 $89,718, an outcome that puts this school in the top tier for undergraduate earnings. That median masks a wide range, from $62,982 at the 25th percentile to $143,920 at the 75th — what you study matters more than where. Adjusted for local cost of living, that median is effectively $92,436 — the surrounding area is cheap enough that the salary stretches further than the raw figure suggests. Debt at completion is low, a median of $11,000. A debt-to-income ratio of 0.12 means borrowing here is proportionate to the payoff.

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.
