The lowest average net price among them is $12,780 a year at Truman State University. Figures come from U.S. Department of Education College Scorecard data.

Is a 30 a good ACT score for Missouri colleges?

A 30 places a student inside the admitted range at 4 four-year colleges in Missouri. Whether it is a good score depends on the target school: a score above a school's 75th percentile is typically where merit scholarship consideration begins, and crossing that threshold can reduce what a family pays by thousands of dollars a year.
