I'm doing my college search and really admire the history and culture of HBCUs. NC seems like it has some great options, but out-of-state tuition can be high. Does anyone know which HBCU in North Carolina offers the lowest tuition for out-of-state students?
Hey there! Elizabeth City State University, which is part of the University of North Carolina system, may be a solid choice for you. They have a lower out-of-state tuition fee compared to other HBCUs in the state. For the 2022-2023 academic year, their tuition for out-of-state students is about $3,260 for tuition and fees per semester, which is quite reasonable.
Keep in mind, though, that room, board, and other living expenses will cost extra. I recommend checking their website or reaching out directly to their admissions office for the most current information, as costs can fluctuate every year. Don't forget to look into scholarship opportunities they offer, which can make your education even more affordable. Also, consider applying for external scholarships and financial aid that can apply to any college you decide to attend. Good luck with your college search!
