Cost Overview

Arkansas families making under $30,000 pay just $13,017 annually after aid. The net price climbs steadily to $20,991 for families earning over $110,000. Over four years, that ranges from $52,068 to $83,964 total. The Razorbacks keep costs reasonable compared to many flagship universities.

Graduates carry a median debt of $21,500, translating to $228 monthly payments. With median earnings hitting $58,191 ten years out, that monthly burden represents a manageable slice of income for most alumni. The university's 96% employment rate helps graduates service their loans successfully. Only 34% of students take federal loans, suggesting many families can afford Arkansas without heavy borrowing.

In-state students get the strongest value proposition here. They represent 52% of enrollment and benefit from tuition under $10,000. Out-of-state families pay nearly triple but still land below many comparable SEC schools.
