Texas median

Median earnings six years after entry ($29,135) are less than 1.1 years of the reported net price. That is a thin margin, and it is the figure worth pressing the school on before enrolling.

Average net price reflects grant and scholarship aid for aided students, not a personal offer. Earnings cover former students who received federal aid; neither measure predicts an individual's outcome.
