Outcomes reveal whether the investment pays back. Four-year completion rate data is unavailable, rising to 46.4% at six years. Graduates earn a median of $28,355 ten years after enrolling, compared with $30,088 six years post-enrollment. Within three years of entering repayment, 43800.0% of borrowers are making progress on their federal loans, and 36.8% 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.
