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 $51,433 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$36,359
$30k–$48k$36,534
$48k–$75k$40,092
$75k–$110k$41,179
Over $110k$42,723

Sticker cost of attendance: $51,433. GPA context: Historic men's HBCU.

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.

59% 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 Morehouse College how grants change after year one. That answer moves these numbers more than anything else on this page.

Applying to a specific major at Morehouse College

44% 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 Morehouse College's Common Data Set and its admissions page, or ask an admissions officer directly — that question gets answered more often than students expect.

Business Direct admit

At Morehouse College: 128 bachelor's degrees awarded a year · $49,722 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.

Federal data shows no bachelor's completions at Morehouse College in computer science, engineering, nursing, architecture or visual & performing arts, so those are not listed above. Small or new programs can be missing from federal reporting — confirm with the school before ruling one out.
