Cost Overview

Families actually pay $12,188 per year on average at Indiana State, far below the $22,675 sticker price. Low-income students pay just $7,702 annually, while families earning over $110K pay $19,574. Over four years, that ranges from roughly $31,000 to $78,000 total.

Most students graduate with $24,000 in debt, translating to $254 monthly payments for a decade. With median earnings of $48,387 ten years out, graduates typically dedicate about 6% of their income to loan payments. Only half of borrowers stay current on repayments though, suggesting many struggle financially after graduation.

In-state students get the best deal here. Nearly 80% of students qualify for in-state tuition at $9,992 versus $21,734 for out-of-state residents. Combined with relatively generous aid for low-income families, Indiana residents from working-class backgrounds find this university particularly affordable.
