Cost Overview

Most families pay far less than St. Lawrence's $81,100 sticker price. The average net cost drops to $30,561 after aid, which means four years runs about $122,000. Families earning under $30,000 pay just $12,250 per year, while those making over $110,000 still get help and pay $40,029 annually. About 55% of students take federal loans, graduating with a median debt of $27,000.

That $27,000 debt translates to $286 monthly payments after graduation. With median earnings of $36,119 in the first year after college, new grads spend about 9% of their income on loans. By year five, earnings jump to $61,947, making those payments much more manageable. Students from lower-income families get the best financial deal here, often paying less for four years than one year at many state schools. The small class sizes (11:1 ratio) mean you get personal attention for your investment.
