Program Analysis

The College of New Jersey's Mathematics program produces graduates earning $50,762/yr — within striking distance of the $50,797 national average for this field.

At 9.7x the cost of in-state tuition, the ten-year earnings outlook represents a strong return. Not exceptional, but meaningfully positive.

AI risk is moderate — 65% task exposure — and the 19% scenario spread suggests disruption would dent but not destroy the earnings outlook.

The $26,000 debt-to-$50,762 income ratio translates to about 6 months of earnings. Standard loan terms should handle this comfortably.

Ranked #90 out of 253 programs, The College of New Jersey's Mathematics offering sits in the upper half but doesn't break into the top tier.

Earnings growth from $50,762 to $77,172 over five years (52% increase) indicates that graduates in this field see meaningful salary progression.
