The reported median is $93,192 four years after completion. The peer comparison uses $68,250 as its benchmark; the difference is $24,942 per year. Four years after completing a degree, federally aided graduates who are working and not enrolled earn a median of $93,192. That is $24,942 above the $68,250 median for comparable institutions (same type and size). Azimuth places the return pillar at the 96th percentile among nonprofit four-year institutions. Graduates earn about $33,221 more than the model expects for similar students. That puts the gap at the 99th percentile. The part the model attributes to the factors it measures (field of study, enrollment and the local labor market) adds $5,237. The part it attributes to a remainder it does not explain adds $27,984. Within the measured factors, the STEM component subtracts $825. These are scenarios estimated from the program mix, not observed groups of graduates. At the program level, Nursing graduates earn a median of $92,960 four years after completion. Allied Health Professions graduates earn $92,104, and Health/Medical Preparatory Programs graduates earn $90,224. The range across programs is narrow. An estimated 26.3% of graduates continue to graduate study, a figure estimated from the program mix rather than observed enrollment. Because four-year earnings cover completers who are working and not enrolled, those continuing their education are outside that earnings snapshot. **Median earnings · four years after completion** $93,192 **Rank for difference from expectations** 99th percentile Four-year median earnings against two benchmarks **Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences reported median** $93,192 **Peer schools comparable schools · $24,942 below Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences** $68,250 **Model expectation what similar students would be expected to earn · $33,221 below Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences** $59,971 School and program earnings use pooled 2017–18 and 2018–19 completion cohorts, measured in 2022 and 2023 and expressed in 2024 dollars.

Azimuth models what we would expect graduates to earn based on who the college enrolls, how selective it is and its local economy. The difference between that expectation and reported earnings is what Azimuth calls [value added](/methodology/#value-added). Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences graduates’ reported earnings are $33,221 above that expectation, the 99th percentile for this measure. Unlike a peer comparison, it adjusts for who enrolls. The breakdown separates the contribution attributed to observed factors from the remaining difference. Neither component establishes how much attending Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences caused a student to earn.
