What the IPEDS & College Scorecard Data Shows for Liberal Arts and Sciences, General Studies and Humanities at SUNY College of Technology at Alfred

This page combines two federal data products: IPEDS institutional characteristics for SUNY College of Technology at Alfred and the College Scorecard field-of-study (FOS) file for Liberal Arts and Sciences, General Studies and Humanities at the associate'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 26 completers in the most recent cohort for this program at SUNY College of Technology at Alfred, the denominator behind the median earnings figure.

Median graduate earnings of $39,787 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 $42,233 across all institutions offering Liberal Arts and Sciences, General Studies and Humanities, graduates here earn below the national average for this program. Across all programs at SUNY College of Technology at Alfred, the mean median-earnings figure is $51,562, 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 Liberal Arts and Sciences, General Studies and Humanities graduates at SUNY College of Technology at Alfred is $15,250, which translates to roughly $127 per month on a standard 10-year repayment plan. The debt-to-earnings ratio of 0.38 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.
