Cost Overview

Families typically pay $13,208 per year after financial aid, though costs vary dramatically by income. Students from families earning under $30,000 pay about $11,793 annually, while those from households making over $110,000 pay nearly $20,000. Over four years, expect total costs between $47,000 and $80,000 depending on your family's finances.

Most graduates leave with manageable debt loads. The typical student borrows $19,691, resulting in monthly payments around $209. With median earnings hitting $53,166 ten years after graduation, these payments represent a reasonable burden for most careers. Only 14% of students take federal loans, suggesting many families can afford costs without heavy borrowing.

Nevada residents get an strong deal here. With 99% of students coming from in-state, the $6,368 tuition keeps education affordable for local families while maintaining access to four-year degree programs.
