Families at Millsaps pay an average of $25,291 annually after financial aid, bringing the four-year total to around $101,164. The college adjusts costs based on family income, with families earning under $30,000 paying about $20,651 per year while those earning over $110,000 pay $32,686. Nearly 40% of students receive institutional grants averaging $32,669, which helps offset the $58,675 sticker price.

Graduates typically leave with $27,000 in debt, translating to monthly payments of $286. With median earnings hitting $53,848 ten years after graduation, that debt load remains manageable for most alumni. The 74.62% loan repayment rate suggests graduates generally handle their obligations well. Lower-income families get the best financial deal here, paying roughly half what wealthy families contribute while accessing the same small-class education that produces notable writers like Eudora Welty and John Grisham.
