Southern Utah University Out-of-State Tuition

Hi friends! I'm an out-of-state applicant considering Southern Utah University. Can anyone provide info on their out-of-state tuition costs? Also, are there any specific scholarships or financial aid opportunities for out-of-state students at this university?

Hello! Southern Utah University (SUU) has a reasonable out-of-state tuition cost compared to many other universities. For the 2024-2025 academic year, the out-of-state tuition for undergraduate students is approximately $24,000 per year.

SUU offers financial aid opportunities for out-of-state students, including merit-based scholarships and need-based aid. To be considered for merit-based scholarships, you don't need to submit a separate application; your admission application will be used to evaluate your eligibility. Some scholarship opportunities for out-of-state students include the Non-Resident Scholarship, the Western Undergraduate Exchange (WUE) program, and the Non-Resident Alumni Legacy Scholarship. Keep in mind that the eligibility criteria and award amounts for each scholarship vary, and they are subject to change.

The Western Undergraduate Exchange (WUE) program, in particular, can be beneficial for students from participating western states, as it allows them to pay 150% of the resident tuition instead of the full out-of-state tuition. Check if your state is part of the WUE program and if you meet the eligibility criteria.

Additionally, make sure to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to be considered for need-based federal aid, grants, and loans. SUU's financial aid office can provide more guidance and information on the available financial aid options for out-of-state students. It's essential to meet all financial aid deadlines and requirements to maximize the aid you receive.

Good luck with your application to Southern Utah University!
