What the data flags at CUNY Graduate School and University Center

SECTION 03 · DEBT-TO-EARNINGS
What loans cost relative to earnings
Annual debt service as a share of median earnings 10 years after entry, computed under federal Direct loan terms (10-year fixed at 6%). The 8% line is the gainful-employment threshold from federal regulation; above 12% has historically been considered “failing” under prior rule cycles.

“CUNY Graduate School and University Center graduates earn $X” — not “CUNY Graduate School and University Center makes you earn $X”
Median earnings describe what cohorts earned. They do not describe what attending CUNY Graduate School and University Center 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.
