Projected Costs Between $53,913 and $187,870 For a Four Year Degree. Between $26,584 and $92,315 For a Two Year Degree.

It can be a bit scary to look at the total projected cost of a college education over the course of a multi-year degree, however, doing so will help you better understand the financial commitment you are making.

The overall cost for on-campus, in-state students to attend Clayton State University in 2019 - 2020 was $21,290. To calculate future costs, we looked at the prior five years of data and determined that this cost increased an average of 1.3% each year.

If this trend continues, we expect the full cost for incoming freshmen to be $21,856 during their first year. By their senior year, that cost will be approximately $22,733, for a bachelor degree candidate ($22,144 for an associate degree candidate) for a total of $89,169 over the course of four years ($44,000 over the course of two years). These numbers do not take into consideration financial aid, which reduces this overall cost by varying amounts per student.

The cost for out-of-state students is more, with an overall expected four-year cost of $136,043 based on a yearly growth rate of 1.7%. The expected two-year cost is $66,848.

Remember, the full costs quoted above are not what most students will pay, and the net price varies quite a bit based on individual circumstances.
