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

Fisher College's reported 2024-25 full-time undergraduate tuition was $34,489, with $1,200 in required fees. The reported amounts were the same for in-state and out-of-state undergraduates; Fisher is a private college, so applicants should not expect a public-college resident tuition discount.

  • Full-time undergraduate tuition and required fees: $36,724 for 2025-26.
  • Reported annual room and board charge: $18,582.
  • Reported books and supplies estimate: $2,000.

Adding those reported categories produces an illustrative $56,271 before transportation and personal expenses. It is not an official individual cost-of-attendance quote: living arrangements, course materials, and other expenses vary. Part-time students should also check the current per-credit price rather than apply the full-time figure to a lighter schedule.

Financial aid can substantially change the amount a student pays. In the reported 2024-25 aid data, 94% of students in the relevant aid measure received financial aid, while 61% had student loans. For families with annual income of $48,000 or less, the reported average net price was $25,267. Net price reflects costs after grant and scholarship aid; it is an average, not an offer to an individual family, and loans generally must be repaid. Eligible students should complete the FAFSA and review Fisher's own scholarship and aid requirements to obtain a personalized estimate.

What are the work-study opportunities at Fisher College?

Fisher students can pursue employment and career preparation, but a campus job, Federal Work-Study award, and internship are different opportunities. Federal Work-Study depends on financial need and an eligible aid award; receiving an award does not itself place a student in a job.

Fisher reports career counseling for undergraduates, along with résumé assistance, interview workshops, a job bank, job fairs, and employer recruitment. Students can use those services to explore fields and prepare applications. An internship is not reported as a college-wide graduation requirement, though an individual program may have its own experiential requirements.

Students seeking paid work should ask the financial aid office whether their aid package includes Work-Study and where eligible positions are posted. They should confirm a job's pay, hours, and location separately; ordinary part-time employment does not require a Work-Study award.
