Hey guys, I'm a junior exploring college strategies and UVA crossed my radar. Can anyone fill me in on their in-state tuition rates? I haven't been able to find any concrete numbers.
Sure, I'd be happy to clarify. The University of Virginia, like other public institutions, charges different tuition based on whether a student is considered an in-state or out-of-state resident. As of the 2024-2025 academic year, the estimated in-state tuition and fees for a full-time undergraduate student at UVA is approximately $20,342 per academic year, not including room and board or other additional costs.
Note that whether or not a student is considered in-state for tuition purposes depends on a number of factors. UVA, as a public institution in Virginia, follows Virginia law in determining whether a student is an in-state or out-of-state resident. This involves considering factors like the student's domicile (permanent home), the domiciles of the student's parents or legal guardians, the length of time the student has lived in Virginia, whether the student graduated from a Virginia high school, and other similar factors.
Of course, it's always a good idea to review the most recent and specific information from the university's official website or financial aid office, as tuition and fee rates can change from year to year. It's also important to consider other costs beyond tuition, like housing, meals, books, personal expenses, and transportation, which can add to the total cost of attending.
