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

For 2024-25, reported full-time undergraduate tuition and required fees total $7,095 for Oklahoma residents and $16,515 for out-of-state students. Tuition is only part of the annual budget: housing, meals, books, transportation, and personal expenses can substantially change what a student needs to finance.

  • Oklahoma undergraduate tuition and required fees: $7,095 for the academic year.
  • Out-of-state undergraduate tuition and required fees: $16,515 for the academic year.
  • Reported room and board charges: $9,554 for the academic year.
  • Reported books and supplies: $1,000 for the academic year.

Adding those reported categories produces $17,649 for an in-state undergraduate living on campus, or $27,069 for an out-of-state undergraduate, before transportation and personal expenses. Those sums are illustrations, not Cameron's complete individualized cost-of-attendance estimate. A commuter would have a different housing and meal budget.

The reported average net price after grant aid was $10,555 for students in the lowest listed family-income band and $11,919 for those in the next band. Net price is an average, not a quoted bill: residency, living arrangements, eligibility for aid, and enrollment level all matter. Cameron reports that 87% of students received financial aid and 26% had student loans. Eligible students should complete the FAFSA and examine federal, Oklahoma, institutional, and military-benefit options rather than subtracting a typical grant from tuition and assuming the remainder is their own cost.

What are the work-study opportunities at Cameron University?

Cameron students can pursue part-time employment while studying, and eligible students may seek Federal Work-Study positions. Federal Work-Study is need-based aid awarded through the financial aid process; receiving an award does not itself place a student in a job, and wages are generally earned through work rather than deducted automatically from tuition.

Students should complete the FAFSA, review any work-study award, and ask where Cameron posts available positions and how hiring works. Ordinary on-campus jobs may have different eligibility rules and funding. For career-related work, Cameron's career services include résumé assistance, interview preparation, career counseling, job-search resources, employer recruitment, and job fairs. These services can help with a search but are not verified job-placement outcomes or a substitute for a program's internship requirements.
