02 · Comparison guidance
What can the South Dakota college directory reliably compare?
The 24 institution records support measure-by-measure comparison, but net price, earnings, completion, and debt retain different cohorts and cannot be combined into one statewide score.
Four-year earnings
Median earnings of graduates who were working and not enrolled four years after completion.
Published programs
Field-and-credential records with at least 75 working graduates plus non-suppressed earnings and debt.
Missing values
Suppressed or unavailable federal measures remain marked as not reported and are never estimated.
