Texas A&M University-San Antonio Earnings: $55K (2026)

How much do Texas A&M University-San Antonio graduates earn?

The reported median is $55,112 four years after completion. The peer comparison uses $57,301 as its benchmark; the difference is -$2,189 per year.

Four years after completing a degree, federally aided graduates who are working and not enrolled earn a median of $55,112, in the 33rd percentile. That is $2,189 below the $57,301 median for comparable institutions (same type and size).

Graduates earn about $6,522 more than expects for similar students. That puts the gap at the 75th percentile.

The part the model attributes to the factors it measures (field of study, enrollment and the local labor market) subtracts $7,823. The part it attributes to a remainder it does not explain adds $14,345. Return is at the 47th percentile among nonprofit four-year institutions.

The earnings scenarios show a range from $45,625 on the downside to $67,621 on the upside. These are scenarios estimated from the program mix, not observed groups of graduates.

At the higher end, Management Information Systems and Services graduates earn $86,929 four years after completion, from 32 degrees awarded a year. Finance follows at $64,417, with 37 degrees awarded.

An estimated 32.3% 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.

Downside shows a lower-earning scenario based on the college’s mix of programs; upside shows a higher-earning scenario. Typical is the school’s reported median four years after completion. These are planning scenarios, not a forecast of your salary or percentiles of individual graduates.

Why the downside matters explores the risk hidden by medians, using older ten-year entrant data. Read about the move to four-year earnings.
