How much a student actually pays usually depends, at least in part, on their family's household income. At Missouri University of Science and Technology this year, we project students with incomes over $110K will pay around $19,961, while students with incomes below $30K will pay around $11,489. That's a difference of $8,472.
| Income bracket | Projected net price at Missouri University of Science and Technology |
|---|---|
| <$30K | $11,489 |
| $30K-$48K | $12,457 |
| $48K-$75K | $15,171 |
| $75K-$110K | $19,457 |

A school’s graduation rate can indicate how likely a student is to complete their degree. At Missouri University of Science and Technology, over the last five years 64% of students earned their bachelor’s degree within six years of enrolling.
Students from different demographic backgrounds often graduate at different rates, so it can be helpful to look beyond the overall graduation rate. This chart shows how students of different races and ethnicities fare earning their degrees at Missouri University of Science and Technology.
| Demographic category | Graduation rate at Missouri University of Science and Technology | National average |
|---|---|---|
| American Indian/Alaska Native | 68% | 31% |
| Asian | 75% | 45% |
| Black | 41% | 34% |
| Hispanic | 54% | 41% |
