What the IPEDS & College Scorecard Data Shows for Social Work at Montclair State University
This page combines two federal data products: IPEDS institutional characteristics for Montclair State University and the College Scorecard field-of-study (FOS) file for Social Work at the post-baccalaureate certificate 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 are not published for this program-school combination, which can reflect source reporting or privacy treatment. Compared to the national mean of $61,840 across all institutions offering Social Work, graduates here earn at a level the national comparison cannot yet quantify. Across all programs at Montclair State University, the mean median-earnings figure is $63,740, 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 four-year post-completion earnings come from the Department of Education’s College Scorecard field-of-study snapshot retrieved in March 2026.
