Cost Overview

Most Lasell families pay far less than the $40,500 sticker price. Students from families earning under $30,000 pay just $15,374 annually after aid. Those from middle-class households earning $48,000-$75,000 pay around $23,000 per year. Even families earning over $110,000 typically pay $33,233, saving more than $7,000 from the published cost. Over four years, total costs range from roughly $61,000 to $133,000 depending on family income.

The typical graduate leaves with $26,000 in debt, translating to $276 monthly payments. With median earnings of $49,705 ten years after graduation, loan payments consume about 7% of income. Newton's small private college model means 73% of students borrow federal loans, but 96% find employment after graduation. Students from lower-income families get the best financial deal here, often paying less than many state schools after Lasell's substantial institutional aid kicks in.
