Strengths and risks

  • Payback could take longer than many families expect.
  • Completion or outcome confidence needs more scrutiny.
  • Graduate review signal is limited or modeled.

Why this score?

High Risk is a Degreeli Value Score v1 directional read based on modeled cost ($62,540), estimated debt ($32,521), early-career salary ($46,698), payback, completion, and review signals. The strongest signal is that cost looks efficient relative to expected early-career pay. The main caution is that payback could take longer than many families expect. Data confidence is medium, so this should support comparison rather than act as a guarantee.

The Degreeli Value Score is directional, not a guarantee of salary, employment, or personal financial outcome.

Bottom Line

Worth comparing

Accounting and Related Services looks viable, but not automatic. It still produces positive ROI after completion adjustment, which means the upside survives a more realistic enrollment path.

The main thing to watch is slippage between ideal and risk-adjusted outcomes. Degreeli estimates that completion risk trims about $678,975 off the on-time case here.
