What the IPEDS & College Scorecard Data Shows for Liberal Arts and Sciences, General Studies and Humanities at Mercy University

This page combines two federal data products: IPEDS institutional characteristics for Mercy University and the College Scorecard field-of-study (FOS) file for Liberal Arts and Sciences, General Studies and Humanities at the bachelor's 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. IPEDS reports 76 completers in the most recent cohort for this program at Mercy University, the denominator behind the median earnings figure.

Median graduate earnings are not published for this program-school combination, which can reflect source reporting or privacy treatment. Compared to the national mean of $53,614 across all institutions offering Liberal Arts and Sciences, General Studies and Humanities, graduates here earn at a level the national comparison cannot yet quantify.
