METHODOLOGY
What these numbers are — and aren't
Earnings are median tax-record earnings for federally aided students, 4–10 years after first enrollment. They describe cohorts, not future outcomes — and they include non-completers and out-of-state movers. Selection bias is real: high-earning programs may attract higher-earning students. We surface descriptive numbers, not causal claims.
