six-year earnings to median debt

Median earnings six years after entry ($21,933) are less than 1.2 years of the reported net price. That is a thin margin, and it is the figure worth pressing the school on before enrolling. 56% complete within six years, so roughly 44% leave without the credential - and those students still carry whatever they paid.

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.
