Miami University-Middletown
Public College in Middletown, OH. Six-year graduation rate 32%. Median 10-year earnings $55,076.
The median ten-year earnings figure of $55,076 sits near the national middle rather than at either extreme. Completion is the weak point: 32% graduate within six years. Graduates carry a median of $23,000 in debt — in line with the national norm.
Earnings: College Scorecard, median ten years after entry across students who received federal aid — completers and non-completers alike.
- ✓ 3-year loan default 0.0% — below national benchmark
- ! Graduation rate 32% — below national average
Academics
Only 32% finish within six years, so roughly two in three students leave without the credential. Retention of 67% means a meaningful slice of each entering class does not return. That gap between coming back and finishing is where this school loses people — after the first year, not during it. Transfer-out runs to 28% — common enough at this school that the completion rate is measuring a smaller group than the entering class. Part-time students fare worse, returning at 31% — relevant if you plan to work while enrolled.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 887 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Students pay an average of $10,574 annually, well below typical undergraduate net price. Income makes less difference than usual: $7,452 at $0–30k, $13,354 at $110k+. About 54% get grants averaging $4,686, so plan on the possibility of paying closer to full price. Federal borrowing reaches 39% of students.
Entering first-year students
A different, smaller group than the rates above: full-time students in their first year of college anywhere. The grant series here also excludes the "other sources" counted in the all-undergraduate figure, so the two are not comparable.

Net price by family income
The same students as the headline above, limited to those who received Title IV federal aid — a narrower group, with a lower overall average. IPEDS publishes no combined figure across these bands, so they should not be averaged into one.

|---|---|
| $0–30k | $7,452 |
| $30–48k | $8,415 |
| $48–75k | $10,126 |
