Earning Power…by the Degree

Just six percent of people in the United States earn a master’s degree; even fewer—2.5 percent—earn a Ph.D. or professional degree. Those who earn advanced degrees become part of a select group with increased opportunities for career advancement, personal enrichment, professional achievement, community leadership, and financial rewards. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, mean income increased as follows in 2005*:


Individual Household Lower Upper
High School Graduate $29,448 $56,810
Bachelor’s Degree $54,689 $104,514
Master’s Degree $67,898 $121,484

*Individual figures are for workers over 18; household figures are for householders

aged 25 and above.
