Cost
In-state students pay about $9,700 in tuition and required fees; out-of-state students pay $20,600. These are 2023-24 sticker prices for full-time first-year students and exclude housing, food and books. Most students pay less than the sticker price after institutional grants and scholarships.
Cost after financial aid
The average net price — what students actually pay after grants and scholarships — is $10,630 per year for first-time, full-time students receiving Title IV aid.
| Family income | Average net price |
|---|---|
| Under $30,000 | $8,292 |
| $30,001–48,000 | $9,307 |
| $48,001–75,000 | $10,904 |
| $75,001–110,000 | $13,948 |
| Over $110,000 | $13,256 |
Net price falls as family income falls because need-based aid rises. These are 2022-23 figures reported to IPEDS; use them to compare institutions, and use each college's own net price calculator for a personal estimate.
Outcomes
Of the 426 first-time, full-time students in the 150% cohort, 42% completed their programme within 150% of normal time. That cohort definition matters: part-time students and transfers are not included, so a college that serves many of them can have a low reported rate while still graduating most of its students.
