Cost Overview
Families earning under $30,000 pay just $15,108 annually at UC, while those making over $110,000 face $26,573. The four-year total ranges from $60,432 to $106,292 depending on family income. Only 9.51% of students receive institutional grants averaging $7,393, reflecting UC's focus on keeping base costs reasonable rather than heavy discounting.
Graduates carry a median debt of $21,250, translating to $225 monthly payments. With median earnings of $54,810 ten years out, that's a manageable 5% of gross income. The 57.12% loan repayment rate suggests some struggle, but employment hits 96.6%. In-state students get the strongest value since 78.58% of the student body pays the lower $13,570 tuition rate. The co-op program helps offset costs while building real work experience, making UC particularly attractive for Ohio residents seeking practical career preparation.
