Cost Overview

Most families pay far less than St. Bonaventure's $55,950 sticker price. The average net cost drops to $27,151 after aid. Low-income families earning under $30,000 pay just $14,813 per year, while those making over $110,000 still get a break at $31,769 annually. Over four years, costs range from roughly $59,000 to $127,000 depending on family income.

Graduates carry a median debt of $26,000, translating to monthly payments of $276. That's manageable against median starting salaries of $41,627, though the debt-to-income ratio improves by the 10-year mark when graduates earn a median $57,214. The Franciscan university's generous aid helps 92% of students take federal loans, but keeps debt loads reasonable. Low-income students get the strongest value here, paying less than many public universities while gaining access to Division I athletics and the tight-knit Bonnies community.
