HU Tuition Cost & Financial Aid
Students and their families are always interested to know the cost of a college degree. Since Hamline is a private institution, the costs are a bit higher than Minnesota's public colleges and universities. In fact, a full year of tuition, books, supplies, and other academic costs run nearly $47,000. On top of that, students must also find a place to sleep and food to eat. For both on and off-campus living, Hamline reports that room and board expenses run around $12,000, though off-campus living can come with more or less cost, depending on student preference. Thus, the gross cost of a year at Hamline University is around $60,000. However, the gross cost is only part of the story.
After the financial aid office applies scholarships, grants, etc. the net price falls quite a bit below the gross cost. With Hamline’s crackerjack financial aid team, the average net price is about one third of the gross cost: $22,000. This number is even lower for students in the lowest income bracket, who see an average net cost of only $17,000. Costs are likewise contained for the very top income bracket of families earning over $110,000 who have an average net cost of around $28,000, less than half the gross price.
