Cost Overview

Families actually pay between $24,745 and $28,812 per year depending on income, despite the $13,160 sticker price. The net price stays surprisingly flat across income brackets, ranging from $25,193 for families earning under $30K to $27,097 for those making over $110K. Over four years, expect to pay around $100,000 to $115,000 total.

Graduates leave with $31,250 in median debt, translating to $331 monthly payments. That's manageable against the $35,404 median earnings after 10 years, but tight for recent graduates. Only 24.63% successfully repay their loans on schedule. Just 3.32% of students receive institutional grants averaging $5,121, while 35.76% take federal loans.
