University of South Dakota

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 South Dakota looks strongest as a selective value play, with its best program landing at $1,473,060 in completion-adjusted ROI.

Families should compare the strongest path against weaker options, especially if recoup times stretch well beyond 17 years.

Why this score?

Strong Value is a Degreeli Value Score v1 directional read based on modeled cost ($79,432), estimated debt ($41,305), early-career salary ($98,991), 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.
