The in-state tuition gap is the flagship's biggest draw — most in-state families pay far less than the out-of-state sticker. Average net price after aid runs about $18,851/yr. Admission odds depend on your student's GPA and test scores, not which high school they attend.

💰 Pay for college in Kentucky

Kentucky's public scholarships

Kentucky's KEES award is unusual: you bank money every year you keep your grades up, then add a one-time test bonus. No income limit on the base or test award.

Merit KEES (Kentucky Educational Excellence Scholarship)
Up to ~$2,500/yr of college (banked $125–$500 per HS year + a test bonus)
GPA: 2.5+ each high-school year ($500/yr at a 4.0) Test: Bonus: ACT 15+ / SAT 810+ (max $500 at ACT 28+ / SAT 1340+) Income: No income limit on base or test award

Kentucky banks a scholarship for each year you keep a 2.5+ GPA — bigger for higher GPAs — plus a one-time ACT/SAT bonus. (Free/reduced-lunch students can add AP/IB supplements.)

Enrollment trend & projection

Total enrollment went from 195 in 2018 to 251 in 2022 — over 4 years.
+28.7%
Why only 3 data points?

Private school enrollment comes from the NCES Private School Universe Survey (PSS), which is collected every other year — not annually like public-school data. The most recent published collection is 2021–22; NCES targeted spring 2026 for the 2023–24 release — we'll load it as soon as it's published.

If the recent trend holds…

At its recent rate of +6.5%/year, projecting from 2022's 251 students:

2023
267
2025
303
2027
344

An extrapolation of the recent trajectory, not a forecast of the school's plans; ignores one-off shocks.

Revenue upside

At tuition per student, the 93 students projected to be gained by 2027 represent ≈ $1,488,000/year in tuition upside.

Tuition is an editable estimate (PSS doesn't publish tuition) — set it to your school's figure.
