Cost Overview

Most Rhodes families pay far less than the $68,927 sticker price. The average net price drops to $25,060 after aid. Families earning under $30,000 pay just $12,814 annually, while those making over $110,000 still get substantial help at $33,764 per year. Over four years, costs range from roughly $51,000 to $135,000 depending on family income.

Rhodes graduates leave with a median debt of $21,761, translating to monthly payments of $231. That's manageable against median earnings of $66,651 ten years out. The college's Presbyterian heritage emphasizes accessibility through generous aid. Nearly 30% of students receive institutional grants averaging $35,712. The 83.9% loan repayment rate suggests graduates can handle their debt loads.

Middle-income families get the sweetest deal here. Unlike many top colleges that favor only the poorest and richest families, Rhodes provides meaningful aid even to households earning $75,000-$110,000.
