Tuition, Cost & Aid

Average Net Price Average net price for full-time, first-time degree/certificate-seeking undergraduates paying the in-state or in-district tuition rate who were awarded grant or scholarship aid from federal, state or local governments, or the institution. Other sources of grant aid are excluded. Aid awarded anytime during the full aid year is included.
Average net price is generated by subtracting the average amount of federal, state or local government, or institutional grant and scholarship aid from the total cost of attendance. Total cost of attendance is the sum of published tuition and required fees (lower of in-district or in-state), books and supplies and the weighted average room and board and other expenses.

What Students Are Saying
academicallly speaking NMT is Constantly setting the bar higher and higher, no education goes to waste here. However, even though there are many social students at NMT and there are many ways to have fun, tech is not a party school at all but the drive to be at such a renown college keeps many students here and we still find many other , more creative ways to have fun.
Andres from Socorro, NM
Tech is cheap compared to the other schools in the state. I think Tech's tuition and everything are reasonable. Except for their dorms. There is very limited housing in the way of dorms so they are expensive because of all the competition. However, the Socorro real estate rental market has adapted to this need and renting is a good option here.
Elizabeth from Socorro, NM
In-state tuituon is very inexpensive but even out of state tuition is only 18000. Though this is a lot it is half of what some schools charge for out of state.
Erik from Puyallup, WA
best deal in the country. tuition is extremely low.
alexander from albuquerque, nm
New Mexico Tech is SO cheap, but a GREAT SCHOOL! I know so many students who don't even have to go in debt to attend, and graduate with a bachelors, making above $70,000 starting salary.
Quintessa from Socorro, NM
Pretty cheap.
Steven
The college has a very low cost in comparison for the curriculum.
Marc from Socorro, NM
It is priced at a very affordable price and you get a great education.
Levi
The cost of going to tech is really pretty low compared to other colleges. Some people get paid to come here. There aren't a lot of degrees offered so if you aren't sure science and engineering is for you you might look elsewhere, but if you know that's what you want this is a fantastic place to come and not go broke doing it.
Jon from Albuquerque, NM
New Mexico Tech is a top-notch institution, one that is world-renowned and valued as one of the best by many. The cost of attending NMT is remarkably low though, pretty close to the lowest in the area for a 4-year program and by far the lowest in the region for the excellent quality of education that you will receive.
