what families actually pay

Cost

Sticker price is a fiction for most families — net price is what aided students pay after grants, by family income.

Families earning under $30k paid $6,326 per year after aid.

Dashed hollow marks are privacy-suppressed brackets — not zero. Band: middle half of public 2-years (all incomes).

Provenance

  • U.S. Dept. of Education College Scorecard, 2026-06 release. Earnings cover federally aided (Title IV) students only. Suppressed values are null, never imputed.
  • Annual Scorecard files 1996-2026. A null in early years usually means the measure was not yet collected, not zero.
  • Coordinates and locale describe the campus address, not where students live.
