Cost

Cost after financial aid

The average net price — what students actually pay after grants and scholarships — is $20,294 per year for first-time, full-time students receiving Title IV aid.

Over $110,000$26,342

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 203 first-time, full-time students in the 150% cohort, 25% 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.
