What the IPEDS & College Scorecard Data Shows for Medicine at Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center-New Orleans

This page combines two federal data products: IPEDS institutional characteristics for Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center-New Orleans and the College Scorecard field-of-study (FOS) file for Medicine at the doctoral credential level. The FOS file is keyed by CIP (Classification of Instructional Programs) code, which means earnings and debt figures here reflect only graduates of this specific program – not the school as a whole. Completer counts for the most recent cohort are not currently reported for this program-school pairing.

Median graduate earnings of $55,512 represent Treasury-verified wages approximately one year after program completion, drawn from Social Security Administration records linked to federal financial aid applicants. Compared to the national mean of $120,315 across all institutions offering Medicine, graduates here earn below the national average for this program. Across all programs at Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center-New Orleans, the mean median-earnings figure is $99,383, providing internal context for whether this specific field out-earns other options at the same institution.

Debt signals complete the ROI picture. Median federal debt is not separately reported for this program at this school.. Program-level debt and earnings come from the Department of Education’s College Scorecard FOS release, updated annually.
