Selectivity and financial signals give context to what applicants can expect.

Outcomes reveal whether the investment pays back. The 4-year completion rate is 47.4%, and the first-year retention rate is 67.0%. Graduates earn a median of $49,601 ten years after enrolling, compared with $42,147 six years post-enrollment. Within three years of entering repayment, 71900.0% of borrowers are making progress on their federal loans, and 61.2% 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.
