Cost Overview

Most families pay far less than Milligan's $48,650 sticker price. The average net cost is $21,131 per year, which means a four-year degree costs about $84,500 total. Families earning under $30,000 pay just $12,172 annually, while those making over $110,000 pay $25,534. This sliding scale makes the small Christian university accessible across income brackets.

Graduates leave with a median debt of $25,219, which translates to monthly payments of $267. With median earnings of $46,641 ten years after graduation, these payments represent about 7% of gross income, which is manageable compared to the national average. The loan repayment rate of 72% suggests most graduates can handle their debt load. Students from lower-income families get the best financial deal here, paying less than half what wealthier families pay while receiving the same small-class education with a 9:1 student-faculty ratio.
