The University of North Dakota (UND) is a public research university in Grand Forks, North Dakota, United States. It was established by the Dakota Territorial Assembly in 1883, six years before the establishment of the state of North Dakota.
The numbers tell a mixed story here: the $18,998 average net price and relatively low median debt of $15,238 make UND one of the more affordable paths to a degree, and the $57,800 median earnings 10 years out are decent for a public university. However, the 63% graduation rate is a real flag — meaning roughly 1 in 3 students who start here don't finish, which is worth asking hard questions about before enrolling. This is a strong option for students drawn to UND's well-regarded aviation or health sciences programs who have a clear plan and support system in place.
