Program Analysis

At $58,920/yr, Statistics graduates from University of Central Florida land near the $63,187 national average — neither a standout nor a red flag.

The 23.9x 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 — 64% task exposure — and the 14% scenario spread suggests disruption would dent but not destroy the earnings outlook.

The median debt load of $22,150 represents less than half a year of starting salary — among the lightest debt-to-income ratios we track.

At #27 out of 51 programs, University of Central Florida's financial outcomes for Statistics trail the majority of peers. The value case depends on other factors.
