Across the undergraduate body at Chillicothe Area Vocational School, around 77% of the undergraduate population received grant aid that averaged $5,758 (among about 34 students).
| Award | % of Undergrads Receiving | Average Amount |

Because need-based aid scales with family income, what students actually pay differs sharply across income brackets.
| Family Income | Average Net Price |
|---|---|
| $0 – $48,000 | $10,605 |
| $30,001 – $75,000 | $12,021 |
Each figure is the net price after grants and scholarships, not the published sticker price.
Net price is the cost remaining after grant and scholarship aid is subtracted from the sticker price, and it is the most useful single number for estimating real cost.
| Cohort | Average Net Price |
|---|---|
| On-campus title-IV students | $11,831 |
| Off-campus title-IV students | $8,079 |
