Lower Your Cost to Attend
The estimated cost to attend the university depends largely on whether you’re a resident or non-resident and whether you plan to live on campus, off campus paying rent, or live with a parent rent free. You can lower your cost through scholarships and financial aid, and tuition savings programs, such as the Western Undergraduate Exchange Tuition Savings Program.
