The percentage is the share of this school's reported awards or completions attributed to the field. It is not the share of enrolled students, a student headcount, or proof of department quality. College Scorecard price and earnings on this page are school-wide, not major-specific. Verify current credentials and department outcomes with the school.
Evidence used here: federal awards/completions share (0.5%), school-wide average net price ($29,207), school-wide ten-year median earnings ($54,400), and peer averages from 475 schools reporting awards in this field. Evidence not included: program enrollment, department-level salary, placement rate, course quality, licensure eligibility, certification, or exam pass-rate outcomes. This page stays available for users because the field appears in federal data, but it is not promoted for search indexing while its share of reported awards is below 1%.

Public Relations, Advertising, and Applied Communication accounts for 0.5% of the awards or completions reported for Curry College. That award concentration is higher than at 33% of schools in this field set and is below the national average award concentration.

Are the earnings major-specific?
No. The $54,400 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $2,697 below the $57,097 average among schools reporting this field, so treat it as an outcomes proxy rather than a department guarantee.
What should I compare next?
