Cost Overview

Most families pay around $25,000 annually after financial aid, not the $35,760 sticker price. Low-income students (under $30K) pay about $22,000 while wealthy families ($110K+) still pay $27,000. Over four years, expect total costs between $88,000 and $108,000 depending on family income.

The typical graduate leaves with $25,750 in debt, resulting in monthly payments of $273. That's manageable against the median starting salary of $47,000, though only half of borrowers stay current on payments. About 52% of students receive federal financial aid. The 16% who get institutional grants average $25,900 each.

First-generation college students and those from working-class families get the strongest financial support here. The combination of decent aid and relatively modest debt loads makes this accessible for students who might struggle to afford other private universities.
