We estimate a standard cost of attendance, or budget, for all groups of students. This information varies depending on undergraduate or graduate status as well as residency, enrollment status (full-time, half-time, etc), and living arrangements. Below are the most commonly used budgets.
Cost of Attendance
- Residents of several Western OH counties can be considered 'reciprocity' students and pay 'In-State' tuition rates.
- From a Midwest Student Exchange / Indiana Partners state? Your cost may be less than the out-of-state estimate.
- Attending less than half time? Only tuition & fees and books & supplies can be covered by financial aid.
This is the estimated cost of attendance for a full-time, on-campus undergraduate student for the full 2024-2025 academic year (fall and spring semesters). Cut these numbers in half to figure out the cost of a single semester. Tuition and fees outlined here are based on 12 to 18 credits per semester.
