Cost Overview

Families earning under $48,000 pay around $2,600 per year at New River Community and Technical College. The net price jumps to $5,600 for middle-income families and reaches $11,656 for those earning over $110,000. A two-year degree costs roughly $5,200 to $23,300 depending on family income. The school serves coal country and surrounding rural areas where affordability matters deeply.

Students graduate with a median debt of just $7,250. That translates to monthly payments of $77, which represents less than 3% of typical graduate earnings of $29,073. The 28% loan repayment rate suggests some struggle with payments despite the low amounts. Nearly half of students receive Pell Grants, reflecting the economic challenges facing Appalachian families. Low-income students get the best deal here, paying roughly half what they would at most four-year colleges while staying close to home.
