Cost to finish and years to pay back, by income
Uses Kent State University at Stark's school-wide net price (no college reports it by major) and this major's graduate earnings.
| Family income | Net price / yr | Cost to finish | Years to pay back |
|---|---|---|---|
| $0–30k | $8,312 | $38,817 | under 1 year |
| $30–48k | $8,216 | $38,369 | under 1 year |

Cost to finish = yearly price × 4.7 years, the average time graduates took (1% finished in 4 years; students who entered fall 2017, IPEDS). Years to pay back = cost to finish ÷ the earnings gain: median earnings of Mathematics graduates 4 years after graduating ($76,336) minus $35,438 for high school graduates ages 25-34 in OH (Census ACS 2020-2024), a gain of $40,898 a year. Before taxes, loan interest and earnings given up while in school. Method

Mathematics at Ohio colleges
Every Ohio college we cover that reports Mathematics graduate earnings, highest first. Net price is the school-wide average after grants. Colleges marked "mostly 2-year" or "bachelor's & associate" award more associate degrees than bachelor's; their bachelor's programs often serve working adults finishing a degree (for example, nurses completing a BSN), so their graduates' earnings can run higher than those of students starting college at 18.
