Concord University's published cost of attendance is $20,434. Financial aid reshapes that figure across income levels: low-income families pay approximately $8,021, middle-income families pay around $10,438, and higher-income families pay approximately $15,472. Azimuth ranks Concord University #106 for post-graduation affordability among nonprofit four-year institutions. Net prices by income band are medians within those bands; individual aid packages vary, so some families in each band pay more and some less than the figures shown. Concord University's aid structure combines federal, state, and institutional need-based aid. Most students apply using the FAFSA to determine eligibility for need-based scholarships and federal loans. The net-price figures above reflect the typical aid package after grants and scholarships are applied, though actual packages depend on individual financial circumstances and the aid programs for which students qualify. Median federal student loan debt at graduation is $18,900, and families using Parent PLUS borrow a median of $11,844; private or institutional loans may add further borrowing that falls outside these federal-only figures — see the Parent PLUS risk framework for how household context shapes PLUS decisions. For a graduate at the institution's median four-year earnings of $45,035, median federal debt of $18,900 projects to a monthly payment of about $214 under standard ten-year repayment.
