Hello everyone. I've been looking into CSU Fullerton as a potential college option. However, I'm still a bit in the dark about how much it would cost. What's the tuition like, and does it differ for in-state and out-of-state students? I'd also be grateful for any info about financial aid at CSU Fullerton.
Sure, I can certainly shed some light on this!
Tuition at CSU Fullerton for the 2024-2025 academic year is approximately $7,000 for in-state students, which includes tuition and systemwide fees. However, you should note that there are additional campus-based fees that may be applicable, and these can slightly increase the total cost.
For out-of-state students, the tuition looks different. In addition to the in-state tuition, out-of-state students are charged a Non-Resident Tuition Fee, which is approximately $396 per unit. So, for a typical course load of 15 credits per semester, you're looking at an additional $11,880 in Non-Resident Tuition Fees per year.
Regarding financial aid, CSU Fullerton offers several aid programs, including grants, federal and state loans, and work-study opportunities, to eligible students to assist with educational expenses. You should complete the FAFSA to find out your potential eligibility for financial aid.
You can also take a look at CSU Fullerton's scholarships. The school awards scholarships based on academics, achievements, talent, personal characteristics, and financial need. There's a wide range available, including alumni scholarships, departmental scholarships, and some specifically aimed at transfer students, to name a few.
Keep in mind that this is just an approximation, and you should verify all this information and check for any potential updates on the official university website. The net price calculator on the CSU Fullerton website can also be a helpful resource in generating a personalized estimate of what you might pay.
Hope this helps! Good luck with your college planning!
