For me placement rate was always an important factor. so I think it’s a reasonable answer. Maybe you get blank stares because people are not sure what level of detail you are looking for. Many parents on college tours did not want or understand specific info about coursework.
Continue your investigations, and maybe you’ll find something that catches your D’s attention. For example, DS was drawn to project-based Engineering courses. (He is an avid mathematician, so he also did extra math electives. And started a math club.) If not… it would be ok to pick the most convenient, affordable option.
