What does the share of awards mean?
Fire Protection accounts for 6.6% of the awards or completions reported for Hill College. That award concentration is higher than at 94% of schools in this field set and is 3.8x the national average award concentration. It does not estimate how many students are currently enrolled in the program.

Are the earnings major-specific?
No. The $39,572 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $4,000 below the $43,572 average among schools reporting this field, so treat it as an outcomes proxy rather than a department guarantee.
