Cost to finish and years to pay back, by income
Uses UNOMAHA'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 | $10,534 | $47,824 | under 1 year |
| $30–48k | $10,614 | $48,188 | under 1 year |
| $48–75k | $12,324 | $55,951 | under 1 year |

| $110k+ | $19,466 | $88,376 | 1.3 years |
Cost to finish = yearly price × 4.5 years, the average time graduates took (28% finished in 4 years; students who entered fall 2017, IPEDS). Years to pay back = cost to finish ÷ the earnings gain: median earnings of Computer Science graduates 4 years after graduating ($107,248) minus $36,549 for high school graduates ages 25-34 in NE (Census ACS 2020-2024), a gain of $70,699 a year. Before taxes, loan interest and earnings given up while in school. Method
