Most Cal Poly Pomona families pay $11,580 per year after financial aid, not the $24,764 sticker price. Low-income families earning under $30,000 pay just $7,599 annually. The cost climbs steadily with income: middle-class families earning $48,000-$75,000 pay $11,196, while high earners above $110,000 pay $20,829. Over four years, expect $46,320 to $83,316 depending on your family's finances.

Graduates leave with a manageable $16,000 in debt, translating to $170 monthly payments. With a median salary of $71,902 ten years out, those payments represent just 2.8% of income. The 72.56% loan repayment rate shows most graduates can handle their debt load. Hispanic students make up 54% of enrollment and often qualify for significant aid. Engineering and architecture majors get the strongest return on investment, landing jobs that easily cover their modest debt payments.
