CAUSAL DISCIPLINE

Fayette County Career & Technical Institute Practical Nursing Program graduates earn $X” — not “Fayette County Career & Technical Institute Practical Nursing Program makes you earn $X”

Median earnings describe what cohorts earned. They do not describe what attending Fayette County Career & Technical Institute Practical Nursing Program 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.
