How this list is ordered
Programs are ordered by the median earnings of their Rehabilitation and Therapeutic Professions graduates four years after completing, highest first. Only programs with a reported earnings cohort in the United States appear. The figures cover federally aided completers who were working and not enrolled four years after finishing the program. For 5 of the 73 listed programs the figure is the two-year completion median rather than the four-year one. The metric does not adjust for graduate school enrollment, cost, or who enrolls, and it is not a measure of teaching quality. The gap between first-ranked Northeastern University and second-ranked University of Hartford is $2,559, while the spread from the top of the list to the bottom is $55,546.
