    3-Year Projected Value

    $825,030

    Conservative estimate based on your assumptions. Does not include faculty satisfaction, student experience improvement, or competitive positioning for residency match outcomes.

    Sources & Methodology

    All default assumptions are grounded in publicly available data from AAMC, LCME, and peer-reviewed academic medicine research. This model uses conservative estimates and excludes qualitative benefits (faculty satisfaction, student experience, Match outcomes, institutional reputation) which represent additional unmeasured value.
