Hello! I've been doing some college research with my parents and Akron U popped up on the radar. It seems like a great place, but I'm not clear on the tuition details, and other costs beyond that. Could anyone share some insight into what I might be looking at financially? Thanks in advance!
Hi there! I believe I can provide you with some general information on tuition and associated costs at Akron University.
As of the 2024-2025 academic year, the undergraduate in-state tuition at the University of Akron is approximately $12,800 and the out-of-state tuition is estimated at around $17,240. These figures do include the general service fee but do not take into account the specific program fees, which may vary depending on your major.
Just to give you a fuller picture, it's also important to consider the cost of room and board, as well as other personal and transportation expenses. On average, the costs for these can range as follows:
- Room and board: approximately $11,220
- Books and supplies: about $800
- Personal expenses: around $2,120
- Transportation: roughly $790
These figures are, of course, estimates and the actual amount can vary based on personal spending habits, residence hall choices, and meal plan selections among other factors.
For a more personalized estimate, you might consider using Akron University's net price calculator on their website (https://www.uakron.edu/student-accounts/estimator), which factors in your family income and other details to estimate potential financial aid and your final out-of-pocket expenses. Keep in mind these are all estimates and actual costs can vary. Hope this helps and good luck with your college planning!
