Projected Costs Between $40,990 and $174,214 For a Four Year Degree. Between $19,672 and $85,570 For a Two Year Degree.

It can be a bit scary to look at the total projected cost of a college education over the course of a multi-year degree, however, doing so will help you better understand the financial commitment you are making.

The overall cost for on-campus, in-state students to attend Truman State University in 2020 - 2021 was $22,284. To calculate future costs, we looked at the prior five years of data and determined that this cost increased an average of 1.4% each year.

If this trend continues, we expect the full cost for incoming freshmen to be $22,890 during their first year. By their senior year, that cost will be approximately $23,829, for a bachelor degree candidate ($23,199 for an associate degree candidate) for a total of $93,430 over the course of four years ($46,088 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.

The cost for out-of-state students is more, with an overall expected four-year cost of $126,154 based on a yearly growth rate of 1.8%. The expected two-year cost is $61,964.

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.
