Cost Overview

Despite a sticker price of $57,513, most Presbyterian College families pay far less thanks to substantial aid packages. Net costs range from $15,964 for middle-income families ($30-48K) to $26,955 for wealthy households ($110K+). Over four years, expect total costs between $64,000 and $108,000 depending on family income.

The 862 students who do borrow graduate with a median debt of $26,000. That translates to monthly payments of $276, manageable given graduates earn a median $60,194 ten years out. The college awards institutional grants averaging $34,379 to nearly 25% of students. Presbyterian's 11:1 student-faculty ratio and strong pre-professional programs help explain the 96.6% employment rate after graduation.

Middle-income families earning $30-48K get the sweetest deal here, paying just $15,964 annually. Low-income students receiving Pell Grants (28% of enrollment) also benefit from generous aid packages that make this small-town Presbyterian education surprisingly affordable.
