What is the cost of studying for a year at Emory & Henry University?

For the 2025-26 reporting year, full-time undergraduate tuition at Emory & Henry was $39,626 for both in-state and out-of-state students. Tuition is only part of the annual expense: housing, meals, books, transportation, and personal costs also affect what a student needs to budget.

  • Full-time undergraduate tuition: $39,000 for the academic year.
  • Typical room and board charges: $14,648 for the academic year.
  • Estimated books and supplies: $1,200 for the academic year.

Those three reported amounts add to $54,848, an illustrative subtotal rather than an official all-inclusive cost of attendance. It excludes expenses such as transportation and personal spending and should not be combined with prices from a different academic year without checking what changed.

Published charges are not the same as net price after aid. In the reported aid figures, 98% of students received financial aid, and the average grant award among undergraduate grant recipients was $32,150. For families with annual income of $48,000 or less, the reported average net price was $14,430; an individual offer may differ substantially. Eligible students may be able to use federal or state grants, institutional scholarships, and federal loans. Filing the FAFSA and reviewing the university's aid deadlines are practical first steps; students considering military education benefits should also verify how those benefits interact with their aid package.

What are the work-study opportunities at Emory & Henry University?

Emory & Henry students can pursue part-time employment and career-development support, but a campus job, Federal Work-Study award, and internship are different arrangements. Federal Work-Study is need-based federal aid earned through an eligible job; an award does not automatically place a student in a position or provide money before hours are worked.

Students seeking employment should review their financial aid offer for Work-Study eligibility and ask the university how campus positions are advertised and filled. Other part-time jobs may have different eligibility rules. Because reported aid figures show that 59% of students used student loans, applicants should compare anticipated earnings and work hours with their remaining costs rather than assume employment will cover the full balance.

The university reports career services including individual and group counseling, résumé preparation, interview workshops, career-interest testing, job listings, employer recruiting, job fairs, and alumni networking. These services can help students explore occupations and prepare applications; they are not employment guarantees. Students whose majors include internships should confirm placement, credit, and scheduling requirements with their academic department.
