About This School
The University of Tennessee-Martin is a public institution located in Martin, Tennessee with approximately 4,600 undergraduate students enrolled. The University of Tennessee-Martin has an open or accessible admissions process, with an acceptance rate of 87%. The average net price after financial aid is $10,299 per year. The graduation rate is 55%, and the typical graduate earns $40,100 within 10 years of enrollment.
The numbers tell a mixed story here — at just $10,299/year net price and only $12,981 in median debt at graduation, this is one of the more affordable paths to a degree you'll find at a public university. However, the 55% graduation rate is a real concern, meaning roughly 1 in 2 students who start here don't finish, and median earnings of $40,100 a decade out suggest limited financial upside for many graduates. Worth considering if you're cost-conscious and have a clear plan to stay on track, but go in with eyes open about the completion challenges.
