What does the share of awards mean?
Philosophy accounts for 3.6% of the awards or completions reported for Randolph College. That award concentration is higher than at 99% of schools in this field set and is 5.2x the national average award concentration. It does not estimate how many students are currently enrolled in the program.
How should I read the cost number?
Randolph College's average net price is $15,921 per year, about $63,684 over four years. That is $4,771 below the $20,692 peer average, before your own aid package changes the final bill.
Are the earnings major-specific?
No. The $53,409 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $7,746 below the $61,155 average among schools reporting this field, so treat it as an outcomes proxy rather than a department guarantee.
What should I compare next?
Start with award concentration, net price after aid, graduation rate, location, and whether the department publishes placement or licensure outcomes. EduGradify places Randolph College #301 of 757 on its school-level value rank among colleges reporting awards in this field.
