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

For 2024-25, Campbellsville University's reported full-time undergraduate tuition was $27,498, with $500 in required fees, for both in-state and out-of-state students. Those charges total $27,998 before housing, food, books, transportation, and personal expenses.

Reported room and board averaged $10,562, and books and supplies were estimated at $800. Adding those figures to tuition and required fees produces $39,360, but that is not a complete personal cost-of-attendance estimate: transportation, other expenses, and program-specific charges may add to it. Students in a different year, course format, or housing arrangement should use the budget issued for their own enrollment.

Published price is not necessarily what a student pays after grants and scholarships. In 2024-25 reporting, 79% of students received financial aid, and the average undergraduate grant award from reported sources was $18,947. Average net price also varied with family income: it was $17,936 for the reported $0-$48,000 income band and $23,105 for the band above $110,000. These are group averages, not individual offers.

Eligible students may seek federal grants and loans, Kentucky aid, institutional scholarships, and applicable military education benefits. Completing the required financial-aid application and reviewing the university's scholarship conditions matters as much as the published tuition figure; applicants should compare final aid offers using the same housing and enrollment assumptions.

What are the work-study opportunities at Campbellsville University?

Campbellsville University offers career-development support, including individual and group counseling, résumé help, interview preparation, employer recruiting, job fairs, and alumni networking. These services can assist a job search, but they are not employment guarantees.

Students seeking paid work should distinguish Federal Work-Study from an ordinary campus job. Work-Study depends on financial-aid eligibility and available positions; an award generally authorizes a student to earn wages through a qualifying job rather than reducing a tuition bill automatically. Other part-time positions and internships may have different hiring, pay, and academic-credit rules. The financial-aid office and career center are the appropriate places to confirm eligibility, openings, and application steps.

No internship is reported as a requirement for every student. Individual majors may nevertheless require fieldwork, student teaching, clinical hours, or an internship, so the program curriculum - not the institution-wide rule - should guide planning.
