FAFSA earnings check
: No notice: no earnings figureThe Department of Education lists Teachers College at Columbia University but has no graduate earnings figure for it, so the FAFSA shows no "lower earnings" notice for this college. That is an absence of data, not a finding either way.
This is one figure for the whole institution, not for any program: earnings differ by credential and field. It covers graduates who completed in 2017-18 and 2018-19, received federal aid, and were working and not enrolled when earnings were measured in 2022 and 2023, in January 2026 dollars. The Department says the notice is informational only: it does not change aid eligibility. Source: U.S. Department of Education, FSA Data Center, March 2026 release. Which colleges are flagged, and what changed.

Academics
Studying online: a substantial share study entirely online
In Fall 2023, 247 of Teachers College at Columbia University's 4,392 students (6%) were enrolled entirely at a distance. A further 1,092 (25%) took at least one distance course alongside in-person study.
Distance-education figures count STUDENTS enrolled in Fall 2023, not programs on offer. "Exclusively at a distance" means a student took only distance courses that term. A college with few or no such students may still run online courses or an online degree, so a low figure is not evidence that online study is unavailable, and a high one is not a judgement of quality either way.
