About Us
Higher education is one of the most important (and expensive) decisions a person can make. Yet, students are often asked to choose with incomplete information, outdated rankings, and little visibility into real outcomes.
Tuition Covered exists to change that.
To help students navigate higher education — from choice to outcome — using transparent, real-world data.
For decades, conversations about college have focused on prestige, anecdotes, and assumptions. What’s often missing is clarity: What does this education actually cost? What does it lead to? And is it worth it for me?
We believe students deserve answers grounded in data, not guesswork.
Tuition Covered was built to bring transparency to an opaque system, helping students and families evaluate educational options with the same rigor they’d apply to any major investment.
At the core of Tuition Covered is a commitment to evidence over hype.
We analyze large-scale education, cost, and outcome data to help students compare schools, programs, and pathways on what truly matters: affordability, earnings potential, and long-term value.
Our proprietary RoEDU™ (Return on Education) metric synthesizes this information into a clear, comparable view of educational value. That makes it easier to understand tradeoffs and identify opportunities that align with individual goals.
No two students are the same and neither are their paths. Tuition Covered is designed to support informed, confident decision-making, whether a student is exploring colleges for the first time or reevaluating their options.
We don’t tell students where to go. We give them the tools to see their options clearly.
That means:
Education can open doors, but only when students understand what they’re walking into.
We believe better information leads to better decisions, better outcomes, and a more equitable education system overall. By making the value of education visible, we aim to help students choose paths that serve their goals.
Tuition Covered is continually evolving, expanding data coverage, refining our models, and building new tools to bring even more clarity to education decisions.
Our goal is ambitious, but grounded: to become the most trusted source for understanding the real return on education.
Because choosing an education shouldn’t feel like a leap of faith.
