Cost Overview
Most Queens College families pay far less than the $25,502 sticker price. The average net cost is just $3,830 per year. Low-income families earning under $30,000 pay only $1,816 annually, while those making $110,000+ pay $12,359. Over four years, that ranges from $7,264 to $49,436 total.
The school keeps debt burden manageable for a CUNY education. Graduates leave with a median debt of $10,298, translating to monthly payments of $109. That's easily affordable given the median earnings of $62,763 ten years after graduation. Nearly half of students receive Pell Grants, reflecting the college's mission to serve working-class families.
Students from lower-income households get the best financial deal here. They pay almost nothing while gaining access to the same rigorous liberal arts education that launched Jerry Seinfeld and Paul Simon's careers.
