Cost Overview

Families earning under $30,000 pay about $40,812 annually at Saint Mary-of-the-Woods, while those making over $110,000 pay $46,639. The Catholic college's net prices cluster tightly across income brackets, reflecting limited need-based aid variation. Over four years, total costs range from $163,248 to $186,556. Two-thirds of students take federal loans, graduating with a median debt of $19,512.

Monthly loan payments average $207, manageable against the $44,599 median salary five years after graduation. The college awards institutional grants averaging $26,438 to just 20% of students. Middle-income families get squeezed hardest here, paying nearly as much as wealthy students despite earning far less. Low-income students who qualify for maximum federal aid and the occasional institutional grant secure the best financial deal at this small Indiana college.
