Cost Overview

Families earning under $30,000 pay just $5,269 annually at Mass Maritime, while those making over $110,000 face the full $33,261 cost. The four-year total ranges from about $21,000 to $133,000 depending on family income. Only 16.97% of students receive financial aid, reflecting the school's practical focus on career preparation over need-based assistance.

Graduates leave with a median debt of $25,000, translating to monthly payments of $265. With median earnings hitting $73,306 in the first year after graduation, that debt load represents less than 4% of annual income. The 84.74% loan repayment rate shows graduates can handle their obligations. Mass Maritime delivers strong earning potential that justifies the investment.

Lower-income families get the best deal here, paying roughly one-sixth of what wealthy families pay while accessing the same high-value maritime training that leads to six-figure careers.
