Cost Overview

Most families at McPherson College pay around $24,837 per year after financial aid, not the full $46,904 sticker price. The actual cost depends heavily on your family's income. Students from families earning under $30,000 pay about $20,869 annually, while those from families making over $110,000 pay $28,232. Over four years, expect to spend between $83,500 and $113,000 total.

About 64% of students take federal loans, graduating with a median debt of $25,242. That translates to monthly payments of $268, which is manageable given that graduates earn a median of $52,084 ten years after graduation. The college gives institutional grants averaging $21,916 to about 34% of students. Lower-income students get the best financial deal here, paying roughly 45% of the full cost. The small size means financial aid officers know every student's situation personally.
