Top Ranked Programs
Seton Hall University's program mix is anchored in Business, with secondary concentrations in health, social sciences, and communication — a signature that reflects the university's identity as a mid-sized private nonprofit in the New York metropolitan area. Business accounts for 27% of graduates, followed by Social Sciences at 10% and Education at 3%, giving the institution a professionally oriented portfolio well-matched to the region's finance, healthcare, and media labor markets. The highest aggregate-return program is Biology, General, which combines meaningful cohort scale with strong four-year earnings — making it a central driver of the university's overall financial outcomes. Among the most popular programs, Biology, General program graduates 163 students annually with median earnings of $93,200 four years after enrollment, and Azimuth ranks the program #2 for median earnings four years after enrollment among nonprofit four-year institutions. Finance and Digital Marketing follow as the next largest programs by cohort size, with graduates earning $89,994 and $77,940 respectively four years after enrollment — outcomes that reflect the institution's applied-professional orientation rather than a research-heavy or humanities-leaning mix. Azimuth ranks Finance #51 and Digital Marketing #56 for median earnings four years after enrollment among nonprofit four-year institutions, per [how Azimuth evaluates programs](/analysis/college-program-rankings-how-to-actually-evaluate-programs/).
