The earnings scenarios show a range from $26,291 on the downside to $48,886 on the upside, with $33,230 as the typical scenario. The scenarios represent lower- and higher-earning program clusters.

At the upper end, Physics graduates earn $67,625 four years after completion, from 13 degrees awarded a year. Chemistry follows at $50,727, with 14 degrees awarded. The largest program, Nursing, reports $38,201 from 44 degrees a year.

An estimated 37.2% 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.
