Cost Overview

Most Cincinnati State families pay around $7,100 per year after aid, though costs vary dramatically by income. Families earning under $30,000 pay just $5,920 annually, while those making over $110,000 face $13,736. Over four years, expect to spend between $24,000 and $55,000 depending on your family's finances.

The debt picture looks manageable for a technical college. Graduates leave with $14,715 in median debt, translating to $156 monthly payments. That's reasonable considering the 95.8% employment rate and $40,137 median earnings within ten years. The school focuses on hands-on training for local manufacturing and healthcare jobs that pay well without requiring a bachelor's degree.

Low-income students get the best deal here. Only 30% receive Pell grants, suggesting the college serves more middle-class families, but those federal dollars stretch furthest for students who need them most.
