Program Analysis
Graduates earn $30,101/yr, roughly in line with the $31,705 national median for Psychology, General. The value proposition here depends on cost, not earnings.
The 13.2x 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 — 49% task exposure — and the 5% scenario spread suggests disruption would dent but not destroy the earnings outlook.
The $18,389 debt-to-$30,101 income ratio translates to about 7 months of earnings. Standard loan terms should handle this comfortably.
Ranked #429 out of 926 programs, West Texas A & M University's Psychology, General offering sits in the upper half but doesn't break into the top tier.
The five-year earnings trajectory from $30,101 to $43,219 shows 44% growth, reflecting steady but unremarkable salary progression.
