Hey everyone, I'm starting to look at colleges and Virginia Tech caught my eye. I'm wondering about the difference in tuition costs for in-state vs out-of-state students. Could anyone provide some insight on this?
Hello! Virginia Tech is a great school, and I'm glad you're considering it. Tuition costs can indeed vary significantly depending on whether you're an in-state or out-of-state student.
For the 2024-2025 academic year, the estimated tuition and fees for in-state undergraduate students at Virginia Tech are about $14,480 per year, whereas for out-of-state undergraduate students, the cost is approximately $34,200 per year. It's important to keep in mind that these numbers do not include additional expenses like housing, meal plans, books, and other personal expenses. Those costs can also vary but typically range between $10,000 and $15,000 per year.
Please note that these numbers are just estimates and may change in future years. You should always check Virginia Tech's official website or contact the financial aid office for the most up-to-date and accurate information on tuition and fees.
Additionally, financial aid may be available to eligible students, which could help offset the cost of attendance. You should fill out the FAFSA to determine your eligibility for financial aid, including federal grants and loans, and explore any scholarships or work-study programs offered by Virginia Tech or external organizations.
I hope this information helps you in your college planning process! Best of luck as you continue exploring your options.
