Overview
Adelphi University looks strongest as a selective value play, with its best program landing at $1,765,043 in completion-adjusted ROI.
Families should compare the strongest path against weaker options, especially if recoup times stretch well beyond 21.8 years.

Why this score?
Fair Value is a Degreeli Value Score v1 directional read based on modeled cost ($123,132), estimated debt ($76,342), early-career salary ($107,314), payback, completion, and review signals. The strongest signal is that cost looks efficient relative to expected early-career pay. The main caution is that graduate review signal is limited or modeled. Data confidence is medium, so this should support comparison rather than act as a guarantee.
Strengths
Cost looks efficient relative to expected early-career pay.
Earnings outlook is strong for a first-decade career path.
