Hey folks! As a junior, I've started researching colleges and thinking about costs. One school that caught my eye is UW Whitewater. Can anyone tell me the current tuition costs for in-state and out-of-state students? How does UW Whitewater's tuition compare to other schools in the area? Thanks in advance!
Hi there! It's great that you're considering the costs of college early on. For the 2024-2025 academic year, the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater (UW Whitewater) has set the following tuition rates:
- In-State Tuition: $8,616 per academic year
- Out-of-State Tuition: $18,716 per academic year
Please note that these figures are for tuition only and do not include other expenses like housing, meal plans, textbooks, and fees, which can vary depending on your specific situation.
When comparing UW Whitewater's tuition to other schools in the area, you will find that it is fairly affordable, especially for in-state students. For instance, the University of Wisconsin-Madison, another school in the UW system, has in-state tuition of roughly $11,606 per academic year and out-of-state tuition of around $42,104 per academic year. This makes UW Whitewater a more cost-effective choice, particularly for Wisconsin residents.
As you continue researching colleges, it's important to explore financial aid options and use each school's net price calculator to better understand what your actual costs might be after accounting for financial aid. Good luck with your college search!
