How to read the numbers
First-time pass rate
The share of a class that passed the national licensing exam on the first attempt, as the testing body reports it. Where a program or school posts its own figure instead, the page says so and shows the school's own label.
Accreditation
Only programs listed by their accreditor appear here. Probation and provisional status are shown as the accreditor or the school states them, with the next review date where one is published.
Cost and earnings
Cost is the program's own published figure, per year or for the whole program, with its year. Earnings come from College Scorecard for graduates of that field at that school, with cohort years. How each number is sourced
