Cost Overview

Most families pay far less than the $72,310 sticker price at University of Portland. The average net cost drops to $36,371 after aid. Lower-income families pay even less, with those earning under $30,000 paying just $24,994 per year. Families making $75,000-$110,000 still pay a substantial $40,001 annually.

Over four years, expect to pay roughly $145,000 on average. Graduates leave with a median debt of $21,370, translating to monthly payments around $227. That's manageable given the median starting salary of $59,965 and strong 96.4% employment rate. Only 18.6% of students receive Pell Grants, suggesting this Catholic university primarily serves middle and upper-middle-class families.

The best deal goes to high-achieving students from lower-income backgrounds who qualify for the university's generous institutional grants averaging $32,801. Out-of-state students pay the same tuition as Oregon residents.
