Hey there, folks. So, I've been checking out University of Dayton, and I'm pretty into it. The only hitch I've got at the moment is, I'm not sure about the tuition fee. Can anyone here shed some light on it?
The University of Dayton, also known as UD, operates on a bit of a unique model when it comes to tuition. As of the 2024-2025 academic year, the base tuition for a full-time undergraduate student is $49,140 annually. There may be additional course fees depending on your major or specific classes you choose.
However, UD has implemented the “Flyer Promise” program, which aims to make education more affordable. Under this program, your tuition rate, room and board costs will remain the same for all four years of an undergraduate program, as long as you remain enrolled full-time.
It's also important to know that when you're budgeting for college, you should consider not just tuition, but also room and board, books, and personal expenses.
Finally, while sticker prices can be daunting, don't forget about financial aid. UD offers a variety of merit-based scholarships, need-based grants, and work-study programs. You will want to complete your FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) to see if you qualify for federal aid as well.
Remember, the sticker price of a university isn't necessarily what you will pay out of pocket. I recommend checking out the net price calculator on UD's website, which can provide a personalized estimate of your costs after financial aid.
