Cost Overview

While Union College lists a sticker price of $84,345 per year, most families pay far less thanks to financial aid. Students from families earning under $30,000 pay just $15,257 annually, while those from families making over $110,000 pay $48,517. The average student pays $36,000 per year, bringing a four-year degree to about $144,000 total.

Union graduates typically leave with $25,337 in debt, which translates to monthly payments of $269. That's quite manageable given graduates earn a median of $88,604 ten years after graduation. The college operates on a trimester system, which can actually help students graduate faster and reduce total costs. Only 13% of students receive Pell Grants, indicating this school serves primarily middle and upper-middle class families. Students from lower-income families get the best financial deal here, often paying less than many state schools while getting the small class sizes that come with a 10:1 student-faculty ratio.
