Hey guys, I'm really digging KU for its academic offerings, and it seems like it might be a great fit for me. However, I'm really concerned about the financial aspects. Are there any current students or alumnis who have a rough figure for the total cost at the University of Kansas, including tuition, room and board, and other expenses?
Sure, I can help with that! The cost of attendance at University of Kansas (KU) for the 2024-2025 academic year for an in-state student living on campus is approximately $28,200. This figure includes $10,294 for tuition and fees, $12,200 for room and board, $1,250 for books and supplies, $2,150 for other expenses, and $2,000 for transportation.
The cost of attendance for out-of-state students climbs to approximately $45,486. The breakdown includes $27,500 for tuition and fees, $12,200 for room and board, $1,250 for books and supplies, $2,150 for other expenses, and $2,000 for transportation.
These numbers represent estimated averages, so your expenses may be a bit higher or lower depending on your personal lifestyle and needs. Do remember that these are the costs before any financial aid is considered. So, based on your eligibility, you could receive scholarships, grants, or loans which could decrease your actual out-of-pocket costs. Be sure to complete the FAFSA to find out what kind of aid you could potentially receive!
