Cost Overview

Families typically pay $25,009 per year at Mount Saint Mary's, despite the $48,132 sticker price. Low-income families pay just $17,327 annually, while those earning over $110,000 pay $36,716. Over four years, total costs range from $69,308 to $146,864 depending on family income.

Students graduate with $25,949 in median debt, translating to $275 monthly payments. That's manageable against median earnings of $72,379 ten years out. The 58.59% loan repayment rate suggests some graduates struggle financially. Only 20.90% of students receive institutional grants, though those who do get substantial aid averaging $33,604.

Low-income students get the best deal here. Families earning under $30,000 pay roughly one-third of what wealthy families pay, making this Catholic women's university surprisingly accessible for first-generation college students in Los Angeles.
