Cost Overview

Families typically pay around $20,173 annually at Bridgewater College, despite the $56,625 sticker price. Net costs range from $14,410 for families earning under $30,000 to about $21,500 for those making over $110,000. Over four years, expect to invest roughly $80,700 in total costs.

The 64.77% of students who borrow graduate with a median debt of $26,000. That translates to monthly payments of $276, which is manageable considering graduates earn a median of $53,453 ten years out. The Church of Brethren college awards institutional grants averaging $34,142 to about 29% of students. These substantial awards help explain why costs stay relatively flat across income brackets above $30,000.

Low-income families get the strongest deal here, paying less than $15,000 annually. The college's commitment to accessibility shows in how little net price varies once family income exceeds $48,000.
