| $30,001 – $75,000 | $30,990 |
| Over $75,000 | $35,708 |
Each figure is the net price after grants and scholarships, not the published sticker price.
Net price is the average annual cost after grants and scholarships are subtracted from the published cost of attendance — the figure closest to what a typical aid-receiving student actually pays.
| Cohort | Average Net Price |
|---|---|
| On-campus title-IV students | $30,135 |
| Off-campus title-IV students | $31,885 |
