Cost Overview

Families earning under $30,000 pay just $4,393 per year after aid, while those making over $110,000 pay $11,591. Most students come from working-class Kentucky families and qualify for significant need-based assistance. Over two years, total costs range from about $8,800 to $23,200 depending on family income.

The financial picture stays manageable after graduation. Typical graduates carry $9,055 in debt, translating to monthly payments of $96. That's reasonable considering median earnings hit $36,143 within ten years of leaving. Only 11% of students need federal loans, and 36% receive Pell Grants. The college serves as an affordable stepping stone for career training or transfer to four-year universities.

Low-income Kentucky residents get the best deal here. They pay roughly half what middle-class families pay and graduate with minimal debt compared to four-year colleges.
