What is the cost of studying for a year at Augusta University?

For 2024-25, reported full-time undergraduate tuition was $7,064 for Georgia residents and $23,384 for out-of-state students. Required fees added $1,350. These are published charges before aid, and the residency classification has a substantial effect on the starting price.

  • Georgia-resident undergraduate tuition and required fees: $8,414 for the academic year.
  • Out-of-state undergraduate tuition and required fees: $25,202 for the academic year.
  • Reported typical annual room and board: $12,906; books and supplies: $1,290.

Adding the reported resident tuition and fees, room and board, and books produces $22,610; the comparable out-of-state subtotal is $38,930. Neither subtotal is a complete cost-of-attendance budget: transportation, personal expenses, and individual housing choices can change the total. Students living at home should not assume the published room-and-board figure is their actual expense.

Financial aid changes the amount many students ultimately pay. In 2024-25 reporting, 93% of students received financial aid and 35% had student loans. Average net price for families with annual income of $48,000 or less was $11,154; net price is an average after applicable grant aid, not an individual offer. Eligible students may consider federal grants and loans, Georgia aid programs, institutional scholarships, and military or veterans' benefits. Filing the FAFSA and reviewing program-specific scholarship criteria are practical steps toward an individualized estimate.

What are the work-study opportunities at Augusta University?

Augusta University students can pursue campus employment, and eligible students may be considered for Federal Work-Study through the financial aid process. Federal Work-Study is a need-based student employment program, not a grant paid automatically with an aid award: a student generally must obtain an eligible job and earn wages for hours worked.

Other part-time campus positions may have different eligibility and funding rules. Students looking for work should distinguish a paid job from an unpaid academic placement or an internship required by a particular major. The university's career services include individual career planning, résumé assistance, interview preparation, job-search resources, employer recruiting, and career events. Those services can support a search, but they do not constitute a verified job-placement outcome.
