Just how bad is Duquesne's tuition?

Hello everyone! As my college search continues, Duquesne University seems like a great fit for me. However, I'm having trouble nailing down exact tuition costs. Can anyone in the know clue me in on their current tuition rates? Much appreciated

Sure, I'd be happy to help. The tuition at Duquesne University for most full-time undergraduates, for the 2024-2025 academic year, is $48,986. Certain programs, like those in the Health Sciences or in Music, have higher tuition rates, in the $50,000-$60,000 a year range. Note that these rates do not include room and board or additional fees.

Please note that while this is the listed tuition, the net cost could be significantly lower depending on your financial circumstances. The university offers a variety of financial aid options, including grants, loans, work-study opportunities, and scholarships.

It's a good idea to fill out the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) to see what amounts of federal and state aid, along with the university's financial aid you qualify for. Also, don't forget to utilize the institution's Net Price Calculator to get a more accurate estimate of what you might truly pay after factoring in financial aid. You can access this tool here: https://www.duq.edu/admission-and-aid/financial-aid-and-scholarships/resources/net-price-calculator.php

You can also reach out to the financial aid office directly with any specific questions you may have. Always remember, the sticker price isn't necessarily what you'll end up paying. It's often less, and sometimes significantly so, due to financial aid packages. So, don't rule out Duquesne based on the sticker price alone. Good luck with your college search!
