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 (0.1%), school-wide average net price ($39,998), school-wide ten-year median earnings ($83,214), and peer averages from 56 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%.

What does the share of awards mean?
Archeology accounts for 0.1% of the awards or completions reported for Tufts University. That award concentration is higher than at 20% of schools in this field set and is below 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?
Tufts University's average net price is $39,998 per year, about $159,992 over four years. That is $17,734 above the $22,264 peer average, before your own aid package changes the final bill.
Are the earnings major-specific?
No. The $83,214 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $15,356 above the $67,858 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 Tufts University #52 of 56 on its school-level value rank among colleges reporting awards in this field.
