Cost Overview

Most families pay around $16,300 annually after financial aid, far below the $31,640 sticker price. Lower-income students get the best deal, with those earning under $30,000 paying about $16,000 per year. Even families making over $110,000 pay just $18,590 annually. Over four years, expect total costs between $64,000 and $74,000.

The Methodist college keeps debt manageable for a private school. Graduates typically owe $12,000, translating to monthly payments of $127. That's reasonable considering the 94.4% employment rate, though early career earnings start low at $15,021 in the first year after graduation. Nearly half of students receive institutional grants averaging $14,078, and 60% qualify for federal Pell grants.

Students from low-income families get the strongest financial package here. The combination of Methodist values, small class sizes, and aggressive need-based aid makes this junior college accessible for South Carolina families seeking a private education stepping stone.
