Program Analysis

Graduates earn $43,451/yr, roughly in line with the $46,892 national median for Business Administration. The value proposition here depends on cost, not earnings.

The 17.5x earnings multiple means ten-year projected earnings exceed tuition cost by an order of magnitude. By pure financial math, this is a standout.

AI risk is moderate — 47% task exposure — and the 8% scenario spread suggests disruption would dent but not destroy the earnings outlook.

The $23,137 debt-to-$43,451 income ratio translates to about 6 months of earnings. Standard loan terms should handle this comfortably.

Ranked #355 out of 1,169 programs, University of North Carolina at Greensboro's Business Administration offering sits in the upper half but doesn't break into the top tier.

The five-year earnings trajectory from $43,451 to $55,523 shows 28% growth, reflecting steady but unremarkable salary progression.
