Cost Overview

Families pay an average of $28,065 annually after financial aid, despite the $67,044 sticker price. Low-income families with earnings under $30,000 pay just $14,326 per year, while those earning over $110,000 pay $32,617. Over four years, costs range from $57,000 to $130,000 depending on family income.

The 11:1 student-faculty ratio and small class sizes at this Catholic women's college justify higher costs for many families. Graduates carry a median debt of $26,944, translating to $286 monthly payments. With median earnings of $63,260 ten years after graduation, loan payments consume about 5% of income. The 89.78% loan repayment rate shows graduates can handle their debt load.

Families earning under $48,000 get the best financial deal here. These students pay roughly one-quarter of the full cost while accessing the same coordinate education experience with Saint John's University that defines this liberal arts institution.
