Cost Overview
Most families pay far less than the $30,980 out-of-state sticker price at Evergreen. The average net price sits at $22,585, and low-income students (under $30,000) pay just $19,969 after aid. Even families earning $110,000 or more pay $25,934, making this one of the more affordable options for experimental education. Over four years, expect to spend about $90,000 to $104,000 total.
Graduates leave with a median debt of $20,500, which translates to monthly payments of $217. That's manageable compared to the $45,320 median earnings ten years out, though the 55% loan repayment rate suggests some struggle early in their careers. Only 7% of students receive institutional grants, but 41% get Pell Grants. In-state students get the best deal here, paying just $8,999 in tuition while accessing the same self-designed programs that out-of-state students pay premium prices for.
