Cost Overview

Most families pay around $27,000 annually after aid, not the $45,000 sticker price. Lower-income students get the best break, with those earning under $30,000 paying just $22,000 per year. Even families making over $110,000 pay about $28,500 annually. Over four years, expect to invest roughly $108,000 to $114,000 depending on your income bracket.

Franklin Pierce graduates carry a median debt of $27,000, translating to $286 monthly payments. That's manageable against median earnings of $53,000 ten years out. The 69% loan repayment rate suggests most graduates handle their debt successfully. With 73% of students taking federal loans, borrowing is common but not overwhelming.

Students from lower-income families get the strongest financial deal here. The $32,000 average institutional grant helps offset costs . Out-of-state families pay the same as in-state residents, making this New Hampshire college accessible regardless of where you call home.
