What it may cost by family income

Estimated average net price — what families actually pay after grants and scholarships — by annual household income. Net price matters far more than the $38,737 sticker price. All figures are the full cost of attendance — housing, food, and books included, not just tuition.

Household incomeEst. net price / year
Under $30k$14,565
$30k–$48k$15,313
$48k–$75k$17,961
$75k–$110k$22,010
Over $110k$24,541

Sticker cost of attendance: $38,737 (out-of-state) · $26,913 in-state.

What the whole degree costs

Every cost figure above is one year. A bachelor's degree is four — sometimes five. Today's-prices makes no assumptions; the second column assumes prices rise ~3.5% a year, in line with recent averages.

Household income4 yrs, today's prices4 yrs with increases
Under $30k$58,260$61,391
$30k–$48k$61,252$64,543
$48k–$75k$71,844$75,705
$75k–$110k$88,040$92,771
Over $110k$98,164$103,439

58% of students here graduate within six years. If the degree takes a fifth year, budget roughly one more year at the prices above — ask the school what share of students finish in four.

First-year aid is not guaranteed to repeat — ask Millersville University of Pennsylvania how grants change after year one. That answer moves these numbers more than anything else on this page.

Applying to a specific major at Millersville University of Pennsylvania

86% is the acceptance rate for the whole university — not for every major. For the programs below, admission is usually decided separately and is harder than that number suggests. Almost no university publishes a by-major admission rate, and neither does the federal government, so we do not show one: any site that does is estimating.

To find the real figure for your major, check Millersville University of Pennsylvania's Common Data Set and its admissions page, or ask an admissions officer directly — that question gets answered more often than students expect.

Computer Science Capacity-constrained

At Millersville University of Pennsylvania: 59 bachelor's degrees awarded a year · $49,484 median earnings (Computer and Information Sciences, General.)

Applicant demand has grown far faster than faculty and seats, so many universities cap CS enrollment, admit to it directly, or require a competitive internal application after enrolling.

Check: Whether the school admits to CS directly, and whether switching into CS later is restricted — the answer changes your real odds more than your test scores do.

Nursing Direct admit

At Millersville University of Pennsylvania: 113 bachelor's degrees awarded a year · $64,990 median earnings (Registered Nursing, Nursing Administration, Nursing Research and Clinical Nursing.)

Clinical placement requirements hard-cap how many students a nursing program can take, which routinely makes direct-entry nursing among the most selective programs on a campus.

Check: Whether the program is direct-entry or requires applying again in sophomore year, and how many seats it takes per cohort.

Business Direct admit

At Millersville University of Pennsylvania: 112 bachelor's degrees awarded a year · $40,911 median earnings (Business Administration, Management and Operations.)

Many undergraduate business schools admit their own cohort at application time and are more selective than the university overall; others admit only after two years of coursework.

Check: Whether the business school is direct-admit for first-years, and if not, what GPA the internal application actually requires.

Visual & Performing Arts Portfolio or audition

At Millersville University of Pennsylvania: 39 bachelor's degrees awarded a year · $28,598 median earnings (Music.)

Admission usually turns on an audition or portfolio judged by the department, which can outweigh grades and test scores in either direction.

Check: Audition/portfolio dates and prescreen requirements — many fall well before the regular application deadline.

Federal data shows no bachelor's completions at Millersville University of Pennsylvania in engineering or architecture, so those are not listed above. Small or new programs can be missing from federal reporting — confirm with the school before ruling one out.
