Antioch College tuition
Published undergraduate tuition $37,143
Finding Antioch College charges 27% above the national private non-profit median tuition.
Evidence Published tuition is $37,143. That is 27% above the national private non-profit median ($29,325). Versus the Ohio median ($15,202), sticker tuition is about 2.4×. Versus the U.S. median ($11,900), sticker is about 3.1×.
Method Sticker tuition compared with Scorecard-derived medians by ownership, state, locale, and national rollups when available.
Interpretation Published tuition measures sticker price relative to private non-profit and geographic peers; it does not equal what undergraduates typically pay after aid.
Limitation Sticker comparisons omit room, board, and institutional aid; average net price and income-band net prices are the stronger signals of typical family cost.
Evidence: published tuition at Antioch College versus school-type, state, locale, and U.S. medians.
Evidence: average net price at Antioch College versus state, locale, and U.S. medians.
What undergraduates typically pay
Finding Average net price at Antioch College is $14,834.

Interpretation Average net price is a stronger institutional cost signal than published tuition because it incorporates grant aid.
