Tuition for in-state students at the University of Oregon rose by 4.4% during the 2022-23 school year, as revealed in the latest institutional report, according to the latest disclosure from the National Center for Education Statistics.

Oregon residents paid $15,054 to attend the public university this year, which is $633 higher than the $14,421 charged in the 2021-22 academic year.

For non-resident students, tuition was 177% higher than that for in-state students in 2022-23, amounting to $41,700. This represents a 3.1% increase from the $40,464 charged in the previous year.

Approximately 43% of the undergraduate student body are Oregon residents, while about 56% come from other states, and international students make up around 1%.

Data indicates that 90% of full-time undergraduates who enrolled in 2022-23 received some form of financial aid. A total of 4,464 students obtained grants or scholarships amounting to $38.2 million, and 1,991 students secured student loans exceeding $15.2 million.

Across all undergraduates, 13,680 students benefited from grants or scholarships totaling $136.2 million. Additionally, 6,037 students borrowed $38.4 million in federal student loans.

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.

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