What families actually paid for college, state by state

Net price is what a family actually paid for a year of college after grants and scholarships, counting tuition, housing, meals, and books. In the United States, 2,661 colleges report it by household income, most recently for school years 2019-20 to 2021-22, depending on the school. Figures cover only families who received federal aid.

By state

A state shows up here once at least 5 of its colleges report net price by household income. A state that isn't listed hasn't cleared that bar yet. See every college, including states not listed here, on the school directory.

See the methodology, the 4-year cost of college before aid, or colleges with guaranteed or frozen tuition.
