Carroll College

What is the cost of studying for a year at Carroll College?

For the 2024-25 academic year, reported full-time undergraduate tuition was $40,132, with $1,352 in required fees. Carroll is a private college, and the reported tuition and fee amounts were the same for in-state and out-of-state students. Reported annual room and board charges were $12,060.

Together, those published figures amount to $53,544 before books, transportation, personal expenses, and any other applicable charges. This is a combination of the stated tuition, fees, and room-and-board figures - not a complete cost-of-attendance estimate or a bill that every student will receive. Students living off campus will have different housing and food costs.

Financial aid can substantially change the amount a student pays. Reported average grant aid awarded to undergraduate recipients was $30,471, while 45% of students received student loans. Grants generally do not require repayment; loans do. Average net price, which accounts for grant and scholarship aid in the federal calculation, also varied by family income. For families in the reported $0-$48,000 income group, it was $16,329; for those above $110,000, it was $28,005. These are group averages, not personalized aid offers.

Eligible students may be considered for federal grants and loans, institutional scholarships, and applicable military education benefits. Applicants should complete the financial aid forms required for their circumstances and compare their own award letter with a current, itemized cost estimate. The comparison should separate grants from loans and work earnings and account for whether an award renews in later years.

What are the work-study opportunities at Carroll College?

Student employment can help Carroll College students meet expenses and gain experience, but wages are not the same as a tuition discount. Students should distinguish ordinary campus jobs from Federal Work-Study, which is a need-based federal financial aid program for eligible students.

A Federal Work-Study award indicates eligibility to earn up to an awarded amount through qualifying work; it is not money automatically credited in full to a student's account. Job availability, hiring, hours, and pay determine actual earnings. Students can ask financial aid staff whether they qualify and where Carroll posts eligible jobs. For career-related work, the career center's job bank, employer recruitment, fairs, and internship support offer additional routes to search. An internship is not an institution-wide graduation requirement.
