EVMS attendance costs vary considerably by degree, residency classification and academic year. As a historical reference, the reported 2024-25 full-time graduate tuition averaged $22,028 for in-state students and $28,828 for out-of-state students, with reported required fees of $1,201. Those graduate averages are not a current M.D. tuition quote or a complete annual cost of attendance.
A current program budget should also account for housing, food, books and equipment, transportation, health-related requirements and personal expenses. Medical and clinical programs may have additional costs, such as examinations or travel to placements. Published tuition is the billed price; a student's eventual cost depends in part on scholarships, other assistance and borrowing. Eligible students may seek federal loans and program-specific scholarships through the financial aid process. Military education benefits may also apply: reported graduate recipients averaged $29,272 in such benefits, but that historical average is not an award amount an individual applicant can expect. Use the current financial aid cost-of-attendance budget for the exact program and year rather than adding historical tuition figures to a newer living-expense estimate.
Student employment at EVMS depends on program schedules, eligibility and available positions. Federal Work-Study, when offered to an eligible student, is a need-based form of financial aid earned through a qualifying job; it is not an automatic payment against tuition or a guarantee of employment.
Students can ask ODU's financial aid and student employment offices whether their particular graduate or professional program participates in Federal Work-Study and how approved jobs are advertised. Other possibilities may include university jobs or program-related research work, but ordinary part-time employment is separate from a Work-Study award. Clinical rotations and required placements are educational components and should not be assumed to be paid jobs.
For medical students in particular, the time available for employment may change across classroom, clinical and residency-application stages. Program-specific advising on research, professional development and residency preparation may be more relevant than a general undergraduate career-center model.
