Cost

| Family income | Average net price |
|---|---|
| Under $30,000 | $11,289 |

| $75,001–110,000 | $20,204 |
| Over $110,000 | $22,537 |
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 1,842 first-time, full-time students in the 150% cohort, 50% 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.
