Worth-It Score
Heavy lift
Landmark lands in the heavy lift band for a typical family. The combination of $56,954 in yearly net price and $17,500 in median debt asks a lot relative to median earnings of $29,813. For context, Landmark's net price sits about 152% above the typical 4-year, private nonprofit school and near the top of its sector range. This does not make the school wrong for every student, but it does mean the price deserves a closer test.

How earnings compare to a high school diploma
Graduates earn $11,987 less than the typical high school graduate ($41,800) ten years after entering this school. A federal rule finalized in July 2026 ties undergraduate student-loan eligibility to a comparison like this one, with the first calculations expected in 2027.
49% of former students here out-earned that benchmark ten years after entry, per College Scorecard.
Context, not a federal determination: the official test will use earnings measured four years after completion and thresholds the Department of Education has not yet published, which may vary by state. Our figure is College Scorecard median earnings ten years after entry. How this works
