Cost Overview

Most Arkansas State families pay far less than the published tuition rates. Students from families earning under $30,000 pay just $9,806 annually after aid, while those from households making over $110,000 pay $17,431. The average net price across all income levels sits at $13,085 per year. Over four years, families can expect to spend between $39,000 and $70,000 depending on their financial situation.

Graduates leave with a median debt of $20,500, translating to monthly payments around $217. With median earnings hitting $42,617 ten years after graduation, most Red Wolves can manage their loan obligations comfortably. The loan repayment rate of 57.57% suggests some struggle, but the relatively low debt burden helps. In-state students get the strongest value proposition here, comprising 84% of enrollment and paying less than out-of-state peers for access to respected nursing and agriculture programs.
