Why this score?

Strong Value is a Degreeli Value Score v1 directional read based on modeled cost ($68,668), estimated debt ($35,707), early-career salary ($88,781), 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.
