I'm a Virginia resident looking to apply to Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU). Money is definitely a factor for me, and I'm curious about the cost of in-state tuition at VCU. Can anyone give me a ballpark figure on that? Thanks in advance!
In-state tuition at Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) for the 2024-2025 academic year is approximately $13,200 per year for full-time, undergraduate students. Keep in mind that this figure covers tuition alone and does not include additional costs such as fees, housing, meals, and textbooks. These additional expenses can bring the total cost of attendance closer to $26,000-$30,000 per year for in-state students.
However, your final cost may vary depending on your financial aid package and other factors, such as the type of housing you choose. It's a good idea to use VCU's Net Price Calculator to get an estimate of the financial aid you might qualify for, or to reach out to their financial aid office directly with any questions you have about cost of attendance or your eligibility for aid.
Good luck with your search for an affordable college experience!
