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 $55,070 are unremarkable — neither the reason to come nor the reason to stay away. The middle half of the students measured earn between $38,252 and $78,622 ten years after entry — a normal spread, so the median is a fair expectation. Regional prices work in graduates' favor here: the cost-adjusted equivalent of that median is $62,163. Median debt among completers is $23,250, roughly the national norm. The debt-to-income ratio is 0.42, around the commonly cited healthy ceiling — manageable, with little margin.

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.
