So what is the cost of attending WNE?
Sticker Price Isn’t Actual Price: Compare the Bottom Line.
We know it’s hard to make apples to apples comparisons, especially when some schools toss in some oranges, such as lower tuition figures but higher fees. So don’t get stuck on sticker price. Look for the bottom line. When your personalized financial aid package factors in scholarships, grants, and other aid, our bottom line costs of attendance make WNE competitive with many institutions you may be considering—even public universities.
Our merit scholarships reward your previous academic performance to give you scholarships ranging from $12,000-$29,000 (2023-24) annually (each year you maintain good grades), as well as need-based grants. This means that most of our students pay significantly less than the tuition rates listed below.
The chart below provides an overview of typical charges at WNE. The first tab, “Basic Costs,” is most useful for new students starting with the fall 2023 semester. It provides an overview of our costs without merit scholarships or need-based grants. The housing and food charges use the double room rate and are subject to change based on where students choose to live.
The second tab, “Typical Costs After Aid,” shows an estimate of out-of-pocket costs families can expect. Actual net cost varies based on your particular circumstances.
