FEDERAL COST DATA

Four ways to read college price.

Annual college-wide figures from the current College Scorecard release. Average net price covers full-time, first-time undergraduates receiving federal aid; public-college figures use in-state students. Program tuition and individual aid offers may differ.

What makes up the annual price?

Sticker-price components reported to IPEDS. Grants and scholarships are not subtracted here.

Tuition and required fees$14,304Same reported price regardless of residency
Books and supplies$938Estimated academic-year allowance
On-campus housing and foodNot availableOther expenses not reported
Estimated on-campus total$15,242Sum of available published components, before aid

Living off campus: $24,030 housing and food allowance plus $9,468 in other expenses.

Do not confuse this with net price. Net price subtracts average grants and scholarships. DegreeVerdict continues to use the separately labeled average net price in its standard college ROI scenario.
