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

For 2024-25, reported full-time undergraduate tuition at Georgetown College was $41,840, with $1,000 in required fees. The reported charges were the same for in-state and out-of-state undergraduates. Those published charges are a starting point, not an individual student's final bill after aid.

• Full-time undergraduate tuition and required fees: $42,840 for 2024-25.
• Typical room and board charges: $11,684 for the academic year.
• Estimated books and supplies: $1,300.

Together, those reported items total $55,824 before transportation, personal expenses, and other costs that may appear in a full cost-of-attendance budget. The college's current billing schedule may differ from these 2024-25 figures. Part-time, graduate, and program-specific charges require separate estimates.

Aid changes the comparison considerably. In the reported period, the average grant aid awarded to undergraduates was about $41,701, but an average award is not an offer to every applicant. Reported average net prices - which account for aid and are based on eligible students in the relevant income groups - were $7,834 for families earning up to $48,000 and $20,207 for families earning above $110,000. An applicant's actual net price depends on their aid package, living arrangement, and other circumstances.

Students seeking aid should complete the FAFSA and review eligibility for federal grants and loans, Kentucky aid where applicable, and Georgetown College scholarships. In the reported data, all students in the measured aid group received some form of financial aid, while 48% used student loans. Because loans must generally be repaid, applicants should compare grant and scholarship amounts separately from borrowing when reviewing an offer.

What are the work-study opportunities at Georgetown College?

Georgetown College students can explore employment alongside their studies, but Federal Work-Study, an ordinary part-time job, and an internship serve different purposes. A Federal Work-Study offer is need-based financial aid that allows an eligible student to earn wages through qualifying employment; it is not money automatically credited in full to a tuition bill.

Students interested in Work-Study should indicate their interest through the FAFSA process and ask the financial aid office how positions are posted, whether an award is required before applying, and how work hours are scheduled. An ordinary campus job may have different eligibility rules. Internships, meanwhile, are generally selected for academic or career experience and may be paid, unpaid, or credit-bearing depending on the opportunity.

The college reports career counseling for undergraduates, résumé assistance, career-interest testing, job fairs, employer recruitment, and alumni networking opportunities. Those services can help a student search and prepare for work, but they should not be confused with a job placement guarantee.
