SUNY Oneonta
Oneonta, NY
Figures on this page come from U.S. Department of Education College Scorecard data. This school has not been individually reviewed, so there is no ranking, aid-policy, or GPA guidance below.
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 $39,771 sticker price. All figures are the full cost of attendance — housing, food, and books included, not just tuition.
| Household income | Est. net price / year |
|---|---|
| Under $30k | $11,044 |
| $30k–$48k | $14,427 |
| $48k–$75k | $19,189 |
| $75k–$110k | $20,552 |
| Over $110k | $25,382 |
Sticker cost of attendance: $39,771 (out-of-state) · $28,821 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 income | 4 yrs, today's prices | 4 yrs with increases |
|---|---|---|
| Under $30k | $44,176 | $46,550 |
| $30k–$48k | $57,708 | $60,809 |
| $48k–$75k | $76,756 | $80,881 |
| $75k–$110k | $82,208 | $86,626 |
| Over $110k | $101,528 | $106,984 |
69% 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 SUNY Oneonta how grants change after year one. That answer moves these numbers more than anything else on this page.
Applying to a specific major at SUNY Oneonta
70% 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 SUNY Oneonta's Common Data Set and its admissions page, or ask an admissions officer directly — that question gets answered more often than students expect.
At SUNY Oneonta: 149 bachelor's degrees awarded a year · $43,426 median earnings (Business/Managerial Economics.)
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.
At SUNY Oneonta: 91 bachelor's degrees awarded a year · $31,495 median earnings (Arts, Entertainment, and Media Management.)
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 SUNY Oneonta in computer science, engineering, nursing 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.
