It already exists and is a free US Dept of Education service. Schools have to report that data to the Dept of Ed already, so they have both an interactive search tool [1] and the raw data available [2].

Looking at [1] just now, it seems overwhelmingly oriented toward answering the question "How do I get in?". Scarcely at all toward "What can the school deliver to the student?" -- only relevant measure is Median Earnings. The fine print: >The median annual earnings of individuals that received federal student aid and began college at this institution 10 years ago, regardless of their completion status. So for the anxious parent, not a lot to go on.
