# CUNY Bronx Community College

Bronx, NY · Public · Associate-granting

> Federal College Scorecard institution **medians** — not a prediction of any one student's outcome, and not a figure for any single program. Earnings/debt cover federally-aided students.

## The bottom line

| Figure | Value | Status |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Typical earnings, 10 yrs after entry | $41,307 | recorded |
| Earnings range (25th–75th pct) | $18,821 – $62,930 | recorded |
| Typical federal debt | $6,430 | recorded |
| Debt of students who withdrew | $5,500 | recorded |
| Completion rate | 16% | recorded |
| Average annual net cost | $12,677 | recorded |
| % earning above a $28k HS-grad wage | 61% | recorded |
| Debt ÷ a year's earnings | 0.16× | derived |
| Earnings premium vs $28k HS benchmark | $13,307 | derived |

**16% of students finish** — the loans are owed whether or not you graduate, so read every figure below next to this number.

Typical **federal** loan debt is $6,430 (≈ 16% of a year's typical earnings here). Note: this counts federal loans only — not private loans, Parent PLUS, or family savings — so true borrowing is usually higher; and because dropouts borrow less, low-completion schools can show a deceptively low debt figure.

## Earnings by major (the number that decides "worth it")

> **Different measure — read on its own terms.** These are median earnings **1 year after completing the program** (early career, graduates only) — NOT the 10-years-after-entry school-wide figure above. Do not compare a program figure to the school figure; compare majors to each other. The Dept. of Education omits programs with too few graduates.

By program, early-career pay ranges from $15,729 to $65,968 across 11 program(s).

## What this is — and is NOT

Institution-wide medians from the U.S. Dept. of Education College Scorecard. **Not** a prediction of what you would earn or owe, **not** a figure for any single program (a CS and a fine-arts graduate of the same school diverge enormously), **not** proof the school caused the outcome (selection, not causation), and **not** a "best college" ranking.
