What is the cost of studying for a year at Fremont University?

Fremont University's reported full-time tuition for 2024-25 was $18,360 for an academic year. A separate reported median annual tuition-and-fees figure was $18,561. Because those measures are labeled differently, students should not treat their difference as a confirmed fee for a particular program; a personalized cost sheet is needed for that.

Reported room-and-board expenses totaled $22,752 for the year. Fremont does not offer college-operated undergraduate housing, so that figure should be understood as a living-expense estimate, not the price of a university residence hall or meal plan. Transportation, books, supplies, and personal expenses may add to a student's budget. Annual estimates also may not match the total price of a program that lasts more or less than one academic year.

Financial aid changes what a student pays, but grants and loans have different consequences. In the 2024-25 reporting, 80% of students received financial aid and 67% had student loans; the reported average grant award was $5,875. Eligible students may be able to use federal grants and loans, applicable California aid, or approved military education benefits. The FAFSA and the school's financial-aid office are the starting points for establishing individual eligibility and reviewing an award offer.

For families with annual income of $48,000 or less, the reported average net price was $37,211. Net price is an estimate of attendance costs after grant and scholarship aid, not tuition alone and not a bill every student receives. Applicants should compare an itemized program budget with their own aid offer, particularly if their commuting or housing costs differ from the published living-expense estimate.

What are the work-study opportunities at Fremont University?

Students seeking paid work while attending Fremont University should distinguish an ordinary part-time job from Federal Work-Study. Work-Study is a need-based federal aid program: eligibility is determined through the financial-aid process, and an award does not automatically provide a job or pay tuition in advance.

Students should ask the financial-aid office whether their award includes Work-Study, what positions are open, how hiring works, and when wages are paid. They can separately ask about non-Work-Study campus jobs and whether their program permits a paid internship. For career support, useful questions concern access to résumé reviews, interview preparation, employer contacts, and help locating program-relevant positions. Such services should be evaluated separately from verified placement or earnings outcomes.
