Cost Overview

Most Madonna University families pay far less than the $40,848 sticker price. Net costs range from $10,809 for families earning under $30K to $21,909 for those making over $110K. The average family pays $17,815 annually, totaling about $71,260 over four years. Only 15% of students receive institutional grants, but those who do get an average of $19,840.

Graduates typically leave with $23,000 in debt, requiring monthly payments of $244. This debt load stays manageable against median earnings of $59,058 ten years after graduation. The 48% loan repayment rate suggests some students struggle initially, but 96% find employment after finishing. Low-income families get the strongest value proposition here, paying roughly one-fifth of what wealthy families contribute. The Catholic university keeps costs reasonable for working-class Michigan families who make up most of the 1,637-student body.
