What the IPEDS & College Scorecard Data Shows for Bilingual, Multilingual, and Multicultural Education at Northern Arizona University

This page combines two federal data products: IPEDS institutional characteristics for Northern Arizona University and the College Scorecard field-of-study (FOS) file for Bilingual, Multilingual, and Multicultural Education at the master'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 44 completers in the most recent cohort for this program at Northern Arizona University, the denominator behind the median earnings figure.

Median graduate earnings of $57,142 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 $62,926 across all institutions offering Bilingual, Multilingual, and Multicultural Education, graduates here earn below the national average for this program. Across all programs at Northern Arizona University, the mean median-earnings figure is $60,832, providing internal context for whether this specific field out-earns other options at the same institution.

Debt signals complete the ROI picture. The median cumulative federal loan debt for Bilingual, Multilingual, and Multicultural Education graduates at Northern Arizona University is $30,000, which translates to roughly $250 per month on a standard 10-year repayment plan. The debt-to-earnings ratio of 0.53 is under the 1.0 threshold the College Scorecard uses to flag favorable gainful-employment outcomes — earnings in year one already exceed cumulative borrowing. Program-level debt and earnings come from the Department of Education’s College Scorecard FOS release, updated annually.

About the Data

Data from the U.S. Department of Education College Scorecard Field of Study file. Earnings are median earnings for graduates after completion, drawn from U.S. Treasury tax records linked to federal financial aid applicants. Institutional characteristics come from IPEDS. Debt figures represent the median cumulative federal loan debt at graduation.

Debt-to-earnings ratio compares cumulative debt to annual earnings. A ratio below 1.0 indicates that annual earnings exceed total debt, generally considered favorable. Estimated monthly payments assume a standard 10-year repayment plan.
