Why this score?

Fair Value is a Degreeli Value Score v1 directional read based on modeled cost ($101,276), estimated debt ($62,791), early-career salary ($104,933), 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.

Risks

Graduate review signal is limited or modeled.
