Federal reporting on who actually enrolls at Longwood, what they paid after aid, and what happened next — independent of anything the school markets.
| Family income | Average net price paid |
|---|---|
| $0–$30,000 | $11,896 |
| $30,001–$48,000 | $12,320 |
| $48,001–$75,000 | $15,544 |
| $75,001–$110,000 | $19,647 |
| $110,001+ | $26,747 |
| All income levels (average) | $19,066 |
That works out to roughly a 45% discount below the federal AY 2021-22 average cost of attendance of $34,588 (College Scorecard — a separate, federally reported figure, not the published cost of attendance shown above).
Longwood is a public school; Scorecard's net price figure covers in-state, Title-IV-aid-recipient payers only — there is no comparable federal figure for out-of-state students.
These awards can be harder to find. Each one has its own rules.
Priority consideration for Honors scholarships is given to students who apply to Honors by December 1.
Longwood is one of them. The cohort minority (84 schools) only awards one-year scholarships, which means the four-year value families assume on a brochure quote isn't guaranteed at every school.
Every claim is checked against Longwood’s own published materials. Below is the full reference set.
