| Federal Pell grants | 67% | $8,484 |

Because grants and scholarships do not have to be repaid, they are the most sought-after type of financial aid. Across the undergraduate body at Randolph Community College, around 46% of the undergraduate population received grant aid that averaged $7,971 (among about 1227 students).
| 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 | $6,209 |
| $30,001 – $75,000 | $8,478 |
| Over $75,000 | $11,421 |
The numbers above are post-aid net prices, so they already account for grants and scholarships.
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 | $6,918 |
| Off-campus title-IV students | $7,242 |
