Worth-It Score
Stretch
Manor sits in the stretch band for a typical family. The long-run earnings picture at $46,825 helps, but median debt of $19,000 plus yearly net price of $13,078 creates a tighter path. For context, Manor's net price is about 30% below the typical 4-year, private nonprofit school. It can work, but the financing plan has to be deliberate.
