- outcomes.startingSalary: Chaplin School's own Career Development page cites a $63,921 average starting salary for Bachelor's graduates (and $68,828 separately for Master's graduates), sourced to Steppingblocks.com and covering a rolling 2020-2026 multi-year window rather than a single graduating class. No FIU-produced outcomes report with an exact single-class-year figure was found for v1.
- outcomes.employmentRate: No disclosed employment-rate or offer-acceptance percentage was found on the Chaplin School's Career Development page or elsewhere for v1; the page reports counts (250+ employers visiting, 500+ internship positions filled) rather than a rate.
- outcomes.recruiterReputationScore: Not yet sourced for v1.

- academicResearch.researchFundingUSD: Not yet sourced for v1.
- academicResearch.hasPhDProgram: The Chaplin School does not itself grant a PhD. FIU Business launched a hospitality concentration within its Doctorate in Business Administration (DBA), enrolling its first cohort in Spring 2025. A DBA is a practitioner-oriented professional doctorate rather than a traditional research PhD, so this is recorded as 0 pending a dedicated research-PhD offering.

- admissions.satActEquivalent: Midpoint of the university-wide SAT middle-50% range (1070-1260) for the 2024-25 cycle; not program-specific.
