What is the cheapest college in Ohio?

By average net price after grant and scholarship aid, Ohio University-Eastern Campus in Saint Clairsville is the least expensive four-year college in Ohio at $3,925 a year. Net price is the total cost of attendance minus aid that does not need to be repaid, for students receiving federal aid. What a specific family pays varies by household income.

Are public colleges cheaper than private colleges in Ohio?

Usually, but not always. Among Ohio's 20 public colleges the median net price is $14,381 a year, against $23,206 across 53 private colleges. Private schools often discount heavily through grant aid, so a private college can cost a specific family less than a public one despite a far higher sticker price.

Does household income change what college costs in Ohio?

Substantially. Across Ohio colleges the median net price is $17,255 a year for a family earning under $30,000 and $26,271 for one earning over $110,000, at the same schools. The average price a college publishes blends every income level together, so it may be far from what any particular family pays.
