CAUSAL DISCIPLINE
“California Jazz Conservatory graduates earn $X” — not “California Jazz Conservatory makes you earn $X”
Median earnings describe what cohorts earned. They do not describe what attending California Jazz Conservatory caused. Selection effects (who admits, who enrolls, who completes) are real. We publish federal data with strict descriptive phrasing — and link the methodology where you can read about the limitations directly.
