Est. total to a degree
$45,152

$11,288/year × about 4.0 years — most students here don't finish in exactly four, and each extra term adds cost. A planning estimate from net-price and graduation-timing data, not a bill.

Modest institutional aid: 4% of freshmen get a grant from the school, averaging $672. Most of what lowers the price here is federal or state money, not the school's own funds.

Blends need-based and merit aid — IPEDS doesn't split the two, so a high number can mean generous merit scholarships, deep need-based aid, or both. Figures cover 51 full-time first-year undergraduates, 2022–23. Source: IPEDS Student Financial Aid.
