Earnings across the first decade (P25 / median / P75)
College Scorecard institution medians at 1, 6 and 10 years after entry. The P25/P75 band is scaled from the 10-year percentile spread, not separately published at each horizon.
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 $32,209 — low enough that cost and debt deserve extra scrutiny. The quartile range runs $19,230 to $44,287, typical for an undergraduate institution. Adjusted for local cost of living, that median is effectively $36,668 — the surrounding area is cheap enough that the salary stretches further than the raw figure suggests. The 40-year net present value from Georgetown CEW is $708,000, placing it 3,081 of 4,419 — worth more than the ten-year snapshot alone.
