Cost Overview

Most families at Russell Sage pay around $23,000 annually after aid, far below the $51,747 sticker price. Low-income students get the best deal at just $15,692 per year, while families earning over $110,000 pay $29,668. Over four years, expect to invest roughly $92,000 to $118,000 depending on your income bracket.

The college keeps debt manageable with a median of $22,000 upon graduation. Monthly loan payments average $233, which represents less than 5% of the typical graduate's $58,316 salary. Nearly all students take federal loans, but 24% receive institutional grants averaging over $26,000. The 10:1 student-faculty ratio justifies the investment for families seeking personalized attention in nursing and health sciences programs.

First-generation college students and those from families earning under $48,000 get strong value here, paying roughly one-third of the total cost.
