Why this score?

Caution Zone is a Degreeli Value Score v1 directional read based on modeled cost ($172,780), estimated debt ($107,124), early-career salary ($95,355), 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.

Risks
