Value snapshot
Cost, debt, completion, and career-return context
This profile keeps College Scorecard institution-level measures separate from ACOTE and NBCOT program-specific context so applicants can see what is known and what still needs verification.
Decision snapshot
Is University of New Hampshire a strong OT value option?
Use the value score as a cost screen, then verify program-specific price, outcomes, fieldwork, and state-market fit before applying.
Best for
- Applicants comparing a #78 public OT value option before building an application list.
- In-state applicants who want to pressure-test $19,202 tuition against debt, completion, and local labor-market context.
- Readers who want matched ACOTE program profiles plus New Hampshire career-return context before treating price as value.
Watch closely
- College Scorecard cost, debt, and completion measures are institution-level signals, not OT-program-specific outcomes.
- Verify the full OT doctorate and OT master's programs cost after fees, equipment, travel, fieldwork, and living expenses.
- New Hampshire labor-market context helps estimate career return, but it does not replace city, setting, employer, and NBCOT outcome comparisons.
Ask before deciding
- What is the full OT-specific cost after fees, equipment, travel, and fieldwork expenses?
- How much debt do OT students graduate with, not just the institution overall?
- How far do students typically travel for Level II fieldwork?

How to interpret the value signal
The value score is strongest when low cost, manageable debt, completion strength, accreditation runway, and local labor-market opportunity point in the same direction.
Tuition signal
The published in-state tuition signal is higher than the lowest-cost public options in this ranking, so debt planning and scholarship details matter more.
Debt signal
The median debt signal is a watch item. Applicants should compare debt against realistic first-year OT salary in the state and setting they plan to enter.
Completion signal
The completion signal is usable but not elite. Applicants should ask about OT-specific retention, remediation, and graduation timing.
State opportunity
New Hampshire adds a moderate career-return signal. Applicants should compare the strongest metros and common first jobs before assuming statewide wage strength.
