What is the cost of studying for a year at Goldey-Beacom College?

For the reported 2024-25 academic year, full-time undergraduate tuition was $14,790, with $150 in required fees, for both in-state and out-of-state students. Published charges are a starting point, not the amount every student ultimately pays.

  • Full-time undergraduate tuition and required fees: $14,940.
  • Typical annual room and board charges: $14,210 combined.
  • Estimated books and supplies: $1,540.
  • Part-time undergraduate tuition: $493 per credit hour.

Adding the listed full-time tuition, fees, room and board, and books produces $30,690. That is an illustration using those reported figures, not a complete cost-of-attendance budget: transportation, personal expenses, and individual living arrangements can change the total. Room and board should not be added a second time as separate room and meal charges.

Financial aid changes the picture. The reported average net price for families with annual income of $48,000 or less was $14,549; for families earning $48,001 to $75,000, it was $15,777. These are averages after grant aid, not personalized quotes. Eligible students may be able to use federal grants and loans, applicable state aid, institutional scholarships, or military education benefits. Applicants should complete the FAFSA and compare their individual aid offer with a budget that includes commuting or housing costs.

What are the work-study opportunities at Goldey-Beacom College?

Goldey-Beacom College students can use career services for job preparation, while eligible students may also pursue paid work during college. A campus job, Federal Work-Study position, and internship are different arrangements and should not be treated as interchangeable.

Reported career-center services include individual and group career planning, résumé preparation, interview workshops, employer referrals, a job bank, job fairs, and alumni networking opportunities. The college does not require an internship of every student. Students seeking experience in a specific major should ask which internships carry credit and whether placement is competitive or independently arranged.

Federal Work-Study is need-based financial aid that students generally earn through an eligible job rather than receive as a lump-sum tuition discount. Eligibility and any award amount depend on the student's aid offer, and an award does not itself secure a position. Students should ask financial aid and the hiring office where jobs are posted, how to apply, and whether non-work-study campus positions are available.
