Projected Costs Between $83,384 and $373,196 For a Four Year Degree. Between $40,323 and $180,650 For a Two Year Degree.

Looking at the total projected cost of a college education over the course of two / four (or more) years can feel a little overwhelming. However, doing so will help better prepare you for the financial commitment you are making.

The overall cost for on-campus students to attend CSB in 2019 - 2020 was $60,388. To calculate future costs, we looked at the prior five years of data and determined that this cost increased an average of 3.2% each year. If this trend continues, we expect the full cost for incoming freshmen to be $64,365 during their first year. By their senior year, that cost will be approximately $70,826 for a bachelor degree candidate ($66,450 for an associate degree candidate) for a total of $270,243 over the course of four years ($130,814 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.

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.
