Net price strips out grant and scholarship aid to show what families really pay. For most students, this is the more useful number than published tuition because it reflects the real out-of-pocket cost.
| Average net price (on-campus) | $17,148.00 |
| Average net price (off-campus) | $15,987.00 |
The real cost varies by income because need-based aid scales with financial need. The breakdown below splits average net price across income brackets:

|---|---|
| Under $30,000 | $12,069.00 |
| $30,000 to $48,000 | $12,341.00 |
| $48,001 to $75,000 | $15,217.00 |
| $75,001 to $110,000 | $20,701.00 |
