College5

Average tuition fees rose 3% for college students in North Carolina in the 2022-23 school year, according to the latest disclosure from the National Center for Education Statistics.

Data shows that students paid $10,757 on average to attend higher education courses at the time, $313 more than the previous school year.

Among the 152 institutions providing full disclosure in the state, Duke University stood out with the highest tuition fees, reaching an average of $62,688. Wake Forest University followed with an average of $62,128 per year. Pamlico Community College students were offered the lowest annual tuition fees at $1,867.

Currently there are 153 higher education institutions in North Carolina.

At the time, at least $643.2 million in grants or scholarships were awarded to full-time undergraduates who started college in North Carolina. Additionally, federal student loans reached more than $211.2 million.

Undergraduate education costs have seen a significant increase over the past few decades. Data shows a 169% rise in the average total cost, including tuition, fees, room, and board, between 1980 and 2020.

According to a 2023 College Board report, in-state students at public universities paid an average of $11,260, while out-of-state students paid $29,150 in the 2023-24 academic year.

Meanwhile, student loan debt has steadily increased over the last 30 years, reaching $1.75 trillion in 2024, averaging a total of $28,950 per borrower. Federal loans make up 92% of the debt, with over half of students at both public and private four-year colleges graduating with student loans.

Of the 153 institutions in North Carolina, Watts College of Nursing did not provide detailed data on tuition fees.

Available data sometimes exceeds 100% due to rounding and administrative calculations.
