No, the College Scorecard data and US News are just looking at different things. The Dept of Ed is looking at median earnings ten years post-graduation for students who received federal financial aid. (In other words: that would exclude kids form super-rich families, so the difference can't be accounted fo by a higher percentage of super rich kids). US News is looking at average starting salary for graduates.
Georgetown grads who received federal aid as students make a median amount of $24k more than Emory grads ten years out. Emory grads make, on average, a little bit more immediately upon graduating. (The difference is pretty minuscule, too: US News says average starting salary for Emory grads is $60,200, compared to $59,500 for Georgetown. Difference in starting salaries is just over 1%. I wouldn't advise my kid to choose a school based on a 1% difference in starting salary)
I am always skeptical of this data if no adjustments are made for cost of living.
