How much a family pays depends heavily on income, because most aid is awarded on the basis of financial need.

|---|---|
| $0 – $48,000 | $18,559 |
| $30,001 – $75,000 | $20,441 |
| Over $75,000 | $27,531 |
Remember these are net prices — what families pay after gift aid, not before.
The net price represents the average annual cost a title-IV-receiving student pays after grant aid is subtracted from the full cost of attendance.
| Cohort | Average Net Price |
|---|---|
| On-campus title-IV students | $18,397 |
| Off-campus title-IV students | $22,689 |
