	Description		Read-only	Idempotent	Open world
`scorecard_compare_schools`Side-by-side comparison of the first five distinct normalized school IDs, accepting up to 1,000 raw IDs. Remaining IDs are unprocessed; request them separately. Prices, debt, completion, earnings, and repayment use competition ranks with shared ties when at least two distinct schools are found. Admissions and aid participation, shared OPEID6 outcomes, and mixed-period price rows are unranked. Topics: costs, admissions, outcomes, aid. Use scorecard_get_school for full profiles.

`scorecard_get_earnings`Institution-level earnings of federally aided undergraduate entrants working and not enrolled, regardless of completion. Reports medians at 6/8/10 years after entry, 6/10-year percentiles, and non-male/male 6-year medians. For graduate program earnings use scorecard_get_programs. years selects API data-file start years (1996–2025), including files without earnings observations. Per-metric availability and official cohort/measurement/dollar context accompany values; unknown metadata stays absent. No re-inflation is performed.

Legacy highest-credential earnings remain separate from current one- and four-year completion series, with dictionary provenance. Earnings and debt pool across campuses sharing OPEID6 within CIP/credential; awards are campus-specific. Use scorecard_lookup_cip to find CIP codes by name.

`scorecard_get_school`Institutional profiles for one or more school IDs. Accepts up to 1,000 elements, deduplicates normalized IDs, serves the first 100 distinct IDs, and reports missing and unprocessed IDs separately. Use scorecard_compare_schools for comparisons. Custom fields return requested paths and their JSON values in selected_fields, absent paths in absent_fields, and real identity; default profiles include costs, admissions, outcomes, aid, and completion rates.
