Cost Overview

Most families pay far less than the $19,260 sticker price at Morehead State. Students from families earning under $30,000 pay just $7,561 annually, while those from households making $30,000-$48,000 pay even less at $7,152. Middle-class families earning $48,000-$75,000 face costs of $9,920 per year. Over four years, that ranges from roughly $28,600 to $39,700 for most students.

Graduates leave with a median debt of $22,250, translating to monthly payments of $236. With median earnings hitting $43,197 ten years out, that payment represents about 6.5% of income. The 95.2% employment rate helps explain why nearly half of borrowers successfully repay their loans. Eastern Kentucky families get the strongest value here, as 85% of students come from in-state and benefit from the $9,838 tuition rate rather than the $14,706 out-of-state price.
