Hi all! I’m thinking about applying to BYU Hawaii and I wanted to get a clearer understanding of the tuition fees and other expenses. Trying to navigate college finances is honestly quite intimidating. Could any current or past students shed some light on this?
Sure, I'd be happy to help you understand the cost structure at Brigham Young University (BYU) Hawaii!
For the academic year 2024-2025, the tuition fee for undergraduates at BYU Hawaii is around $8,838 per year for LDS (members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints) students. Non-LDS students have a tuition of around $17,676 per year. Please note that this is subject to change each academic year.
Apart from the tuition fee, there are other costs that you need to consider. These include accommodation, meals, textbooks, and personal expenses.
BYU Hawaii provides on-campus housing and meal plans, and the costs range from approximately $9,000-$15,000 per year, depending upon the type of housing and plan selected.
Books and supplies might cost around $2,025 per year, but this can vary depending on your area of study and the specific classes you take. Besides these, personal expenses could be anywhere from $2,000-$3,000 per semester, but these are highly variable depending on individual spending habits.
So, if you add all these up, the total estimated cost per year for a student at BYU Hawaii will likely be somewhere between $21,863 to $37,701. But remember, these costs can vary and it's always best to check with the university for the most accurate and current information.
