Cost Overview

Most Butler County families pay far less than the $5,610 sticker price. Students from families earning under $30,000 pay just $2,746 net annually, while those from households above $110,000 pay nearly $11,000. Over two years, costs range from $5,492 to $21,934 depending on family income. The college serves working-class western Pennsylvania, where nearly 35% of students receive Pell Grants.

Graduates carry a median debt of $10,020, translating to monthly payments of $106. With median earnings hitting $38,891 ten years out, loan payments consume roughly 3% of income. The 90.8% employment rate reflects strong ties to local healthcare systems and manufacturing. Only 17% of students take federal loans, suggesting many pay as they go or rely on family support. Low-income students get the best financial deal, paying less than many four-year universities charge for a single semester.
