Graduates earn a median of $43,445 ten years after enrolling, compared with $42,430 six years post-enrollment. Within three years of entering repayment, 33400.0% of borrowers are making progress on their federal loans, and 57.3% of graduates earn above the high-school threshold. Treating these numbers as a single snapshot alongside the cost cohort is the standard approach for evaluating ROI under the College Scorecard methodology.
