College Scorecard (2026 release), institution-level · payback and returns are our math.

The arithmetic, on DeVry University-Georgia's own numbers. Net price $28,229 × 4 years = $112,916 total. Median earnings $45,987 fall $2,373 short of the $48,360 high-school baseline, so the premium this formula divides by is not positive and no break-even year exists on institution-wide pay. A programme here earning $58,360 would clear the $112,916 bill in about 11.3 years — the gap, not the price, is what blocks payback. Full method.
