CAUSAL DISCIPLINE

Grace College and Theological Seminary graduates earn $X” — not “Grace College and Theological Seminary makes you earn $X”

Median earnings describe what cohorts earned. They do not describe what attending Grace College and Theological Seminary caused. Selection effects (who admits, who enrolls, who completes) are real. We publish federal data with strict descriptive phrasing — and link the methodology where you can read about the limitations directly.
