Important Caveats

Institutional Participation

Earnings data is only available for graduates from institutions participating in the PSEO Coalition. States and institutions not in this coalition are not represented. A complete list of participating institutions is available in the Data section of the Longitudinal Employer-Household Dynamics (LEHD) program website.

Currency of Data

There is a natural lag in the availability of data, as it takes time to collect and prepare information on post-graduation outcomes. However, updates occur periodically throughout the year.

Geographic Variability

Earnings outcomes may be influenced by geographic distribution of graduates’ employment and residence, which can vary significantly across institutions.

Annualized Earnings

The figures shown are annualized, not actual reported earnings, to allow consistent comparisons across time frames and graduates.
