Arbitration clauses aren't a sign of a scam. Almost every top tier company employment contract has arbitration clauses in them. Job placement claims are absolutely an easy stat to manipulate. There are always caveats in how the number was measured and when. If they can't provide the source of data or explain the methodology that's suspicious. CIRR and GRAD are two standards, flawed as they may be, that at least explain the methodology so you interpret. I have a lot more thoughts but not enough time so I might come back later with more.
