Hello, I'm a West Virginia resident trying to understand the cost of attending West Virginia University as an in-state student. Can anybody give me some details regarding the in-state tuition cost? Thanks a lot!
Sure, for the 2024-2025 academic year, West Virginia University's in-state tuition for undergraduate students is approximately $9,648 per year. Please note that this is only the tuition cost and does not include fees, room and board, or other expenses associated with attending the University. When you include those additional expenses, the total cost of attendance for an in-state student can range from around $22,000 to $25,000 per year, depending on your housing and meal plan choices.
Don't forget to take into account available financial aid and scholarships that can help offset the cost. Be sure to complete the FAFSA to determine your eligibility for federal and state financial aid, as well as institutional aid offered by West Virginia University. Additionally, you may want to research and apply for scholarships relevant to your interests, academic achievements, and background, as these can significantly reduce your out-of-pocket costs.
To get a more personalized estimate of the costs, you can use the Net Price Calculator provided on the West Virginia University website. It will take into account your financial situation to give you a better idea of the amount you might need to pay after applying financial aid and scholarships.
