Federal borrowing is widespread: 88.6% of federal aid recipients borrow federal loans, and borrowers who completed have median federal student loan debt of $25,576 at completion. That figure is $576 above the $25,000 peer median for comparable institutions (same type and size).
That debt corresponds to an estimated payment of $291 a month if repaid over ten years. Median Parent PLUS borrowing is $24,974.

Student payment as a share of available income
At median graduate earnings of $52,242, with a $22,590 annual allowance for basic expenses:
11.8% of income above the allowance · Good
- Excellent Under 8%
- Good 8–under 12% · selected scenario
- Concerning 12–20%
- High risk Over 20%
How this estimate works
These are modeled earnings scenarios, not observed earnings percentiles. Annual student payments ÷ (earnings − basic-expense allowance). The starting allowance, $22,590, uses the published framework’s 2024 baseline; it is not a current local living-cost estimate. Change it for your budget, including taxes and other obligations. This combines school-level figures for illustration, not a typical individual’s budget or an official school rating. Parent PLUS is separate.
Payment assumptions
Payments are 10-year standard payments on the median balance, before loan fees, used as a yardstick. Rates for newly issued loans may differ, and loans made after July 1, 2026 can repay over a longer term; existing loans keep their original fixed rates.
