Cost Overview

Most families pay far less than the $20,004 sticker price at Wright State-Lake Campus. Students from families earning under $48,000 pay around $9,700 after aid, while those from higher-income households ($110,000+) pay about $15,676. Over four years, total costs range from roughly $39,000 to $63,000.

The campus keeps debt manageable for a regional university. Graduates carry a median debt of $22,750, translating to monthly payments of $241. With median earnings of $49,500 ten years out, loan payments represent about 6% of gross income. Only 22% of students take federal loans, suggesting many avoid debt entirely. The 13:1 student-faculty ratio delivers personal attention at a fraction of flagship university costs.

In-state students get the best deal here. Nearly 97% of the 984 students are Ohio residents, and institutional grants averaging $4,223 help one in five students reduce costs further.
