The University of Texas--Dallas

Degreeli reads this school through school + degree value, not prestige alone. Start with the Value Score, then expand each program to see cost, salary, payback, and risk.

Overview

High upside

The University of Texas--Dallas has at least one program with standout ROI and a graduation rate of 76%, which lowers the odds that upside disappears in practice.

The main watchout is dispersion. Results span from $517,290 to $2,129,214, so program choice matters more than brand alone.

Why this score?

Excellent Value is a Degreeli Value Score v1 directional read based on modeled cost ($73,068), estimated debt ($37,995), early-career salary ($112,559), 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.

Estimated debt appears manageable relative to salary.

Earnings outlook is strong for a first-decade career path.

Risks

Graduate review signal is limited or modeled.
