Cost context
Where University of South Carolina-Union sits on price and outcomes
At $8,065, University of South Carolina-Union's reported average net price is cheaper than 14% among 81 South Carolina colleges with a reported figure. The state median is $16,525.

- South Carolina median
- 3.1×
- six-year earnings to median debt
- $5,298
- reported income-bracket spread
Net price moves with income here, but not sharply: $7,340 for families reporting under $30,000 against $12,638 above $110,000, a difference of $5,298. Aid narrows the gap without closing it, so the $8,065 average sits reasonably close to what most brackets report.
Six years after enrolling, the median former student who received federal aid reports $34,202 - about 4.2 times one year of the reported net price here. On that ratio the cost is recovered quickly. Only 43% complete within six years. Most students here do not finish, which is the single most important number on this page for anyone weighing the cost.
Average net price reflects grant and scholarship aid for aided students, not a personal offer. Earnings cover former students who received federal aid; neither measure predicts an individual's outcome.
