DOE-modeled fail

DOE's public modeling data suggests this broad program grouping failed the earnings premium measure. This is based on the 4-digit CIP grouping level used in the rulemaking file — the actual rule would operate at the 6-digit level.

⚠ Data caution

This record reflects a 4-digit CIP grouping (5135) used in DOE's public modeling file. Actual enforcement under the proposed rule would operate at the 6-digit CIP level. The specific programs inside this grouping depend on institution-assigned CIP coding and may not map neatly to how Southwest Institute of Healing Arts markets its majors.

Benchmark type

Not Listed in Section 84001

This CIP code is "Not Listed in Section 84001" of the benchmark statute. DOE uses the national high school median ($34,808) as the earnings benchmark rather than a field-specific or state-specific rate.

Reporting prompts

How many 6-digit programs sit inside CIP 5135 at this institution?
How does Southwest Institute of Healing Arts map this CIP grouping to named majors?
Could similar-looking programs at peer institutions be coded differently?
What share of students in this program borrow? What is their typical debt load?
Do many completers pursue graduate school within four years?
Has the institution reviewed its own 6-digit program structure under the proposed rule?
How does the institution think this proposed rule would affect programs in this field?

Methodology

What PPD:2026 is: The Department of Education's Program Performance Data file, released as part of the 2026 rulemaking. It models program outcomes at the institution × credential × 4-digit CIP level.

Why modeled exposure is not a final result: These are modeled estimates from a single cohort snapshot. They cannot account for future appeals, teach-outs, institutional changes, or student behavior changes.

The 4-digit vs. 6-digit gap: The public file uses 4-digit CIP codes. The actual proposed rule would use 6-digit codes. About 83% of 4-digit CIPs contain only one 6-digit CIP, but the rest may contain many.

Institution-assigned CIP codes: Institutions assign CIP codes to their own programs. Similar majors at different colleges can be classified under different CIP codes, especially for interdisciplinary or area-studies programs.

Earnings measurement: Earnings are measured roughly four years after program completion, which may undercount lifetime earnings in fields with slower early-career income growth.

Benchmarks: Undergraduate programs are benchmarked against working adults aged 25–34 with only a high school diploma. Graduate programs use a more complex bachelor's-degree benchmark.

Plain-language summary (copy for notes)

DOE's public rulemaking file suggests the broad program grouping Somatic Bodywork and Related Therapeutic Services. (CIP 5135, Undergrad Certificate) at Southwest Institute of Healing Arts carries a DOE-modeled fail designation under the proposed earnings-accountability rule. This grouping is defined at the institution × credential × 4-digit CIP level, while the actual proposal would operate at the 6-digit CIP level. This should be treated as a reporting lead rather than a definitive regulatory finding.
