Why this score?

Excellent Value is a Degreeli Value Score v1 directional read based on modeled cost ($24,696), estimated debt ($12,842), early-career salary ($83,970), 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.
