Financial aid, in the form of loans, grants, work-study, and scholarships, is one way colleges reduce the cost of attendance so most students can actually afford to attend. However, some types of aid are more desirable than others, and some students will receive more than others.
Looking at the entering class at Paul D Camp Community College, 70% of first-year full-time students received aid of some kind (about 80 new students).
| Type of Aid | % of Freshmen Receiving | Average Amount |
|---|---|---|

| Institutional grants & scholarships | 6% | $1,673 |
| Federal Pell grants | 47% | $5,562 |
| State/local grants | 54% | $1,856 |

Because grants and scholarships do not have to be repaid, they are the most sought-after type of financial aid. At this school, approximately 36% of the undergraduate population received grant aid that averaged $5,535 (covering around 420 awardees).
| 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 | $3,910 |
| $30,001 – $75,000 | $5,063 |
| Over $75,000 | $11,279 |
Each amount is the average cost remaining once grant aid is subtracted, by income band.
After grants and scholarships come off the published price, what remains is the net price — the best estimate of true out-of-pocket cost.
| Cohort | Average Net Price |
|---|---|
| On-campus title-IV students | $4,126 |
| Off-campus title-IV students | $5,666 |
