CAUSAL DISCIPLINE

Interactive College of Technology-Chamblee graduates earn $X” — not “Interactive College of Technology-Chamblee makes you earn $X”

Median earnings describe what cohorts earned. They do not describe what attending Interactive College of Technology-Chamblee 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.
