Tap a program. Watch the fan open.

Every program appears in two reads. The federal map is the exact occupation set the NCES CIP2020–SOC2018 crosswalk assigns to the program's CIP code. The validated read expands it through three sources in combination — the federal assignments as the spine, BLS and O*NET occupational data, and Atlanta-region employer demand. The validated read never contradicts the federal map; it adds the destinations the file's direct-relationship rule excludes.

Three rules govern every figure. Earnings, where shown, are College Scorecard data at roughly one year after completion — directional floors, never verdicts; the federal accountability measure reads year four against the national $31,269 threshold that applies to Clark Atlanta. Programs under 30 completers aggregate across award years before the measure reads them. And federal rows marked provisional await verification against the downloadable NCES file — their status is shown, not assumed.

• Verified this cycle: the Business Administration federal map (52.0201, 45 occupations) and the Psychology federal map (42.0101, 9 occupations), both retrieved cleanly from the O*NET rendering of the NCES file; the NCES disclaimer; all Atlanta figures from the BLS OEWS May 2024 release; CAU enrollment and completions from the CAU Fact Book and IPEDS.
• Provisional, pending a direct pull from the NCES CIP2020–SOC2018 file: the federal rows for Mass Media Arts (09.0799), Biology (26.0101), Criminal Justice (43.0104), Political Science (45.1001), and Social Work (44.0701). The O*NET rendering endpoint returned mis-cached pages this cycle; validated-direction lists for these are directional until confirmed.
• The threshold: the national $31,269 figure applies because 34 percent of CAU students are Georgia residents; the Georgia state figure is $29,609 (89 FR 107130).
• Earnings: Scorecard one-year data via third-party renderings, shown only against the national bar; Business (~$36,161), Social Work (~$40,378), and Educational Administration (~$66,092) clear it; Psychology, Biology, Criminal Justice, and Mass Media read below at one year and inflect at a graduate credential.
• The film distinctive: Georgia film spending was $2.6 billion in FY2024, down 37 percent from $4.1 billion — a documented cyclical slowdown attached to the Mass Media alignment.
• Verification status, July 14, 2026: two federal rows verified, five provisional; publication pending institutional review.
