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

Ensign College's published tuition is relatively low compared with many private colleges, but tuition is only one part of the cost of attending. For 2025-26, institutional reporting lists the same average full-time undergraduate tuition for Utah residents and students from other states, with no separately reported mandatory fee in those figures.

  • 2025-26 average full-time undergraduate tuition: $4,128 for both in-state and out-of-state students.
  • 2025-26 reported mandatory undergraduate fees: $0.
  • 2025-26 part-time undergraduate tuition: $167 per credit hour.
  • Reported annual room-and-board allowance: $10,670; this is not a charge for an Ensign-operated residence hall.
  • Reported books-and-supplies cost: $285.

A separate 2026 tuition listing gives an annual figure of $4,128. Because it comes from a different reporting period, it should not be combined with the 2024-25 allowances to present a single current-year total. Students also need to budget for transportation, personal expenses, and any costs specific to their courses or living arrangements.

Net price estimates the cost remaining after grants and scholarships for the population measured. In 2024-25, the reported average net price for families earning $48,000 or less was $10,525; the figure for families earning more than $110,000 was $14,145. Neither is an individual quote. Aid eligibility, course load, housing choices, and the applicable tuition schedule can change what a student actually pays.

What are the work-study opportunities at Ensign College?

Ensign College students can pursue employment while enrolled, and its career services include job-search support. A paid campus job, an internship, and Federal Work-Study are different arrangements: only a position designated under the federal program is a Federal Work-Study job.

Students who want work as part of their financing plan should check their aid eligibility and available positions with the college before assuming work-study funding will be included. The career center reports offering a job bank, job fairs, employer recruitment, résumé assistance, interview preparation, career-interest testing, and individual or group career planning. Those services can help with a job search, but access to them is not a job offer. The college does not report an internship requirement for every student, so applicants should inspect the requirements of their particular program.

In the 2024-25 aid figures, 64% of students received some form of financial aid, while 2% had student loans. The reported average grant award was $1,883 for the measured undergraduate population. Students should review current scholarship terms and federal or state aid eligibility with the financial aid office; an average award does not predict an individual package.
