Outcomes
Earnings across the first decade (P25 / median / P75)
Census PSEO, bachelor's degree recipients, graduating cohort 0000 (25,199 graduates). Each point is one published percentile, not an average across fields.
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 $54,458, near the middle of the national range. With the 25th percentile at $38,018 and the 75th at $72,674, outcomes here are about as varied as anywhere else. Regional prices work in graduates' favor here: the cost-adjusted equivalent of that median is $57,872. Median debt among completers is $20,500, roughly the national norm. A debt-to-income ratio of 0.38 sits right at the threshold where borrowing starts to constrain choices.

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.
