About these program numbers

Up to 30 programs with reported four-year earnings, in alphabetical order. A program is identified by institution, CIP field and credential. Debt is median Stafford and Grad PLUS debt disbursed at all institutions for program completers who borrowed. Figures are drawn from the June 10, 2026 field-of-study snapshot. The existing package does not preserve exact program cohort years, so none are inferred and these figures are excluded from cross-college comparison.
