Cost Overview

Most Union families pay around $27,000 annually after aid, though costs vary dramatically by income. Families earning under $30,000 pay about $25,000, while those making over $110,000 pay nearly $30,000. Over four years, expect to invest roughly $107,000 total. The Southern Baptist university keeps aid relatively modest, with only 21% receiving institutional grants averaging $28,520.

Graduates typically leave with $20,714 in debt, translating to $220 monthly payments. With median earnings of $54,000 within a year of graduation, loan payments consume about 5% of gross income. The 66% loan repayment rate suggests some graduates struggle financially post-graduation.

Middle-income families earning $30,000-$48,000 get the sweetest deal at just $21,812 annually. High earners pay the premium for Union's small classes and Christian environment, while low-income students still face substantial costs despite federal aid.
