CAUSAL DISCIPLINE

“East Stroudsburg University of Pennsylvania graduates earn $X” — not “East Stroudsburg University of Pennsylvania makes you earn $X”

Median earnings describe what cohorts earned. They do not describe what attending East Stroudsburg University of Pennsylvania 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.
