University of North Carolina--Wilmington

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

University of North Carolina--Wilmington has at least one program with standout ROI and a graduation rate of 71%, which lowers the odds that upside disappears in practice.

The main watchout is dispersion. Results span from $415,623 to $1,613,224, so program choice matters more than brand alone.

Why this score?

Strong Value is a Degreeli Value Score v1 directional read based on modeled cost ($80,436), estimated debt ($41,827), early-career salary ($92,265), 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.
