Where these figures come from
Every figure on this page is reported by the college itself to the U.S. Department of Education and published in the College Scorecard. Net price is the full cost of attendance minus the average grant and scholarship aid awarded — what a typical aided student actually paid. Sticker is the published cost of attendance before any aid. Schools are ordered by undergraduate enrollment, and each school’s own page breaks its net price down by family-income band.
Scope & limitations
- ~2-year lag. Federal cost data is historical by design — these are the 2024 reporting years, not a live quote for the coming academic year.
- Averages, not your price. Net price is an average across aided students, not a personalized estimate. Your own cost depends on your finances and the year you apply — use a school’s official net price calculator for that.
- Coverage gaps. Montana colleges that report neither a net price nor a cost of attendance in any year aren’t listed, because there would be nothing to show. Individual figures a school didn’t report are marked as not reported rather than estimated.
Informational only — income-band averages from federal data, not an offer of aid or a substitute for any college’s official net price calculator or professional advice.
