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 $48,992 are unremarkable — neither the reason to come nor the reason to stay away. The spread is wide — $26,813 at the 25th percentile against $81,247 at the 75th — so the median hides very different outcomes depending on major and path. Graduates leave owing a median of $8,250 — light enough that even modest earnings clear it quickly. The debt-to-income ratio of 0.17 is comfortable — debt is a small fraction of what graduates earn. Default tells the same story: 0.0% of borrowers default within three years, well under the national rate.
