University of Miami's published cost of attendance is $86,078. Net price by income band reflects the university's public-tuition structure and need-based aid reach: low-income families pay approximately $15,978, middle-income families pay around $21,768, and higher-income families pay approximately $50,352. Azimuth ranks University of Miami #1255 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. Median federal student loan debt at graduation is $17,500, and families using Parent PLUS borrow a median of $37,267; 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 University of Miami's median four-year earnings of $85,019, median federal debt of $17,500 projects to a monthly payment of about $198 under standard ten-year repayment. In a downside earnings scenario anchored on lower-earning program clusters, projected four-year earnings of $46,994 would shift the real burden of that same payment.
