Vanderbilt financial aid

Paying for College Financial Aid (Need-Based, Merit Aid, Loans)

My child was accepted to Vanderbilt and I want to understand upcoming aid.

I know cost increases if you make more money.

An example might be:

For example - let’s say 2023 income was 150000 and cost is 30000

2024 we maybe make 185000 - so maybe 20% increase - would cost would be around 36000?

2025 lets say we makestrong text 195000 - so maybe 5% more to 38000

2026 - 200500 - so maybe another 5% to 40000

That is assuming all other factors even - is that how this works? Is this how we should plan?

Thanks!!

Run Vandy’s NPC with the hypotheticals. Increase the future year costs that the NPC starts with.

Opportunity Vanderbilt aid applies at these income levels, so it’s important to use the NPC (not the quick calculator) on Vanderbilt’s website to get a complete picture.
