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.
Applicant read
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 still competitive, but applicants should verify total program-specific fees and living costs before treating it as low-cost.
Debt signal
The institution-level median debt signal is favorable compared with many graduate health pathways, but it is not OT-program-specific.
Completion signal
The institution-level completion signal is strong, which supports the value case when paired with lower tuition and debt.
State opportunity
Washington adds a moderate career-return signal. Applicants should compare the strongest metros and common first jobs before assuming statewide wage strength.
