Why this score?
High Risk is a Degreeli Value Score v1 directional read based on modeled cost ($80,592), estimated debt ($49,967), early-career salary ($41,973), payback, completion, and review signals. The strongest signal is that cost looks efficient relative to expected early-career pay. The main caution is that debt risk rises quickly if borrowing approaches the modeled estimate. Data confidence is medium, so this should support comparison rather than act as a guarantee.
