What the IPEDS & College Scorecard Data Shows for Student Counseling and Personnel Services at Texas A & M University-Corpus Christi

This page combines two federal data products: IPEDS institutional characteristics for Texas A & M University-Corpus Christi and the College Scorecard field-of-study (FOS) file for Student Counseling and Personnel Services at the master's credential level.

IPEDS reports 8 completers in the most recent cohort for this program at Texas A & M University-Corpus Christi, the denominator behind the median earnings figure.

Median graduate earnings of $59,613 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 $58,081 across all institutions offering Student Counseling and Personnel Services, graduates here earn above the national average for this program. Across all programs at Texas A & M University-Corpus Christi, the mean median-earnings figure is $56,564, 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 Student Counseling and Personnel Services graduates at Texas A & M University-Corpus Christi is $52,416, which translates to roughly $437 per month on a standard 10-year repayment plan.

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.
