Reading Cost After Scholarship

  1. 1

    Read across the income bands

    Each band column is the average net price a family in that income range actually pays after need- and merit-based grants and scholarships — not the sticker price.

  2. 2

    Understand the Average column

    The Average is the officially reported, enrollment-weighted average net price (the figure College Navigator shows) — it weights each band by how many students fall in it, so it is not the simple average of the five bands.

  3. 3

    Filter and sort

    Narrow by classification, public/private, region, state, or US News rank, then click any band header to rank schools by cost for that income level.
