Cost Overview

Most families pay around $7,070 per year after aid, though costs vary dramatically by income. Students from families earning under $30,000 pay just $5,435 annually, while those from households above $110,000 face $10,186. Over two years, total costs range from roughly $11,000 to $20,000.

Miles Community College keeps debt manageable for a rural Montana school. Typical graduates carry $11,500 in loans, translating to monthly payments of $122. With median earnings hitting $38,800 in the first year after graduation, loan payments represent about 3.8% of gross income. The 96.2% employment rate suggests strong job placement in eastern Montana's agricultural and energy sectors.

Low-income students get the best financial deal here. They pay less than half what wealthy families do, and only 24.87% of students need federal loans. The combination of affordable tuition and decent earnings potential makes this a solid choice for budget-conscious families.
