Texas Woman's University pairs above-peer earnings with a favorable modeled comparison. Federally aided completers who are working and not enrolled earn a median $64,179 four years after completion, in the 63rd percentile.

The peer median, the middle value for comparable institutions (same type and size), is $57,301, leaving the university $6,878 above it. Graduates earn about $17,563 more than the model expects for similar students, an earnings-beyond-expectations measure: the gap between graduates' earnings and what the model expects for similar students.

Azimuth puts it in the 94th percentile and the return pillar in the 80th percentile among nonprofit four-year institutions. The part the model attributes to the factors it measures (field of study, enrollment and the local labor market) adds $4,564.

The part it attributes to a remainder it does not explain adds $12,999. Both comparisons favor the university.

Texas Woman's University posts median earnings of $64,179 four years after completion among federally aided completers who are working and not enrolled. That is a schoolwide early-career measure, rather than an outcome for any one field.

Azimuth places those earnings in the 63rd percentile among nonprofit four-year institutions, using an earnings cohort of 3,379 completers. The program-mix model sets its typical earnings scenario at $64,179, which is a scenario rather than an observed group of graduates.

An estimated 29.0% of graduates continue to graduate study, a figure estimated from the program mix. The schoolwide earnings measure, its Azimuth standing, and the typical scenario all point to earnings that are solidly above the middle of nonprofit four-year institutions.

The return picture at Texas Woman's University combines earnings above the peer benchmark with a model result above expectations. Among federally aided completers who are working and not enrolled, median earnings are $64,179 four years after completion, placing them in the 63rd percentile.

The peer median, the middle value for comparable institutions (same type and size), is $57,301, and the university’s median is $6,878 above it. Graduates earn about $17,563 more than the model expects for similar students.

Earnings beyond expectations, the gap between what graduates earn and what the model expects for similar students, is in the 94th percentile. Azimuth ranks Texas Woman's University #300 for return among nonprofit four-year institutions.

Earnings scenarios grounded in the program mix run from $50,251 in the downside scenario to $87,017 in the upside scenario. The part the model attributes to the factors it measures (field of study, enrollment and the local labor market) adds $4,564.

The part it attributes to a remainder it does not explain adds $12,999. Within the measured factors, the STEM component subtracts $218.

The peer comparison and model result point in the same direction. Nursing sets the largest-program pattern, with 470 degrees awarded and median earnings of $89,115 four years after completion.

Azimuth ranks it #104 nationally in its field. Among other high-earning programs, Computer and Information Sciences had 39 degrees awarded and median earnings of $76,555 four years after completion; Finance had 39 degrees awarded and $71,282; and Accounting had 23 degrees awarded and $67,214. The listed programs vary in both award volume and four-year earnings.

Field choice makes a noticeable difference in the modeled earnings picture at Texas Woman's University. The downside earnings scenario is $50,251 and the upside scenario is $87,017; both are scenarios estimated from the program mix, not observed groups of graduates.

Among individual fields, median earnings four years after completion are $89,115 in Nursing, $76,555 in Computer and Information Sciences, and $71,282 in Finance. Those field-level results help explain the distance between the modeled lower and upper scenarios.

Graduates of Texas Woman's University earn about $17,563 more than the model expects for similar students, and the university's affordability pillar sits at the 88th percentile. The combination of above-expected earnings and below-peer debt points the same way for a borrower.

Aid covers about 46% of the published cost for the average aid recipient, though this is an average rather than a personal quote. Borrowers who complete leave with a median of $19,218 in federal student loans, $2,011 below the peer median of $21,229.

That debt corresponds to an estimated payment of $218 a month if repaid over ten years. Parents who borrow hold a separate median of $13,471.
