Cost Overview

Families at this Baptist university pay far less than the $43,380 sticker price. Net costs range from $14,534 for families earning under $30,000 to $26,442 for those making over $110,000. Over four years, that's $58,136 to $105,768 total. The school's strong financial aid helps explain why 95% of students come from Texas.

Graduates leave with $24,711 in median debt, translating to $262 monthly payments. That's manageable against median earnings of $54,771 ten years out. The 64% loan repayment rate suggests most handle their debt successfully. Low-income families get the sweetest deal here, paying just one-third of what wealthy families pay thanks to need-based aid that covers nearly 70% of costs.
