What does the share of awards mean?
Chemistry accounts for 7.7% of the awards or completions reported for Kalamazoo College. That award concentration is higher than at 100% of schools in this field set and is 8.9x 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 $65,590 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $8,285 above the $57,305 average among schools reporting this field, so treat it as an outcomes proxy rather than a department guarantee.
What should I compare next?
