Penn graduates typically earn $86,069 in their first year out of college. The median debt of $15,715 translates to monthly payments of $167. That's manageable when graduates earn a median of $111,371 ten years after graduation. The Wharton brand opens doors on Wall Street and in consulting. Only 15.72% of students receive need-based aid, reflecting Penn's wealthy student body.
Low-income families get the best deal here. Penn's endowment covers nearly everything for families earning under $30,000, making an Ivy League education surprisingly affordable for those who need it most.
