Cost Overview

Families actually pay $21,185 per year on average at Maine Maritime Academy, though costs vary dramatically by income. Students from families earning under $30,000 pay just $12,499 annually, while those from households making over $110,000 pay $25,342. Over four years, that ranges from $50,000 to $101,368 total.

The school's specialized maritime focus shows in the financial outcomes. Graduates earn a median of $89,964 ten years out, making the typical $27,000 debt load manageable. Monthly loan payments of $286 represent just 3.8% of median graduate earnings. The 87.84% loan repayment rate reflects the strong job market for maritime professionals.

Low-income students get the best deal here. They pay roughly half what wealthy families do while accessing the same high-earning career paths in shipping and marine engineering that justify the investment.
