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 $23,641 — low enough that cost and debt deserve extra scrutiny. The quartile range runs $10,834 to $35,782, typical for an undergraduate institution. Adjusted for local cost of living, that median is effectively $26,686 — the surrounding area is cheap enough that the salary stretches further than the raw figure suggests. Median debt among completers is only $8,500, which changes the arithmetic considerably. The debt-to-income ratio is 0.36, around the commonly cited healthy ceiling — manageable, with little margin.
