• Full-time undergraduate tuition: $12,360 for 2025-26.
• Required undergraduate fees: $1,090 for 2025-26.
• Combined tuition and required fees: $12,360 for 2025-26, before other expenses or aid.

A full cost-of-attendance budget also accounts for expenses such as housing, food, books, transportation and personal needs, even when students arrange housing themselves. Applicants should obtain the current budget for their specific program and enrollment level rather than treating tuition and fees as the total cost.

Financial aid changes the amount a student may need to cover. In the reported aid figures, 96% of students received financial aid and 83% used student loans; the latter is a reason to compare loan amounts and repayment obligations, not evidence that borrowing is required. Average net price also varies by family income: the reported figure was $18,858 for families earning up to $48,000. Net price includes expenses beyond billed tuition and is an average, not an individualized award.

Eligible students may be considered for federal grants and loans, state aid and institutional assistance. Completing the FAFSA and reviewing Herzing's aid offer will show which forms of assistance actually apply. Grants and scholarships generally do not require repayment when their conditions are met; loans do.

What are the work-study opportunities at Herzing University-Akron?

Students seeking paid work while attending Herzing University-Akron should distinguish Federal Work-Study from an ordinary part-time job or a required internship. Work-Study is need-based federal aid that must appear in an eligible student's award; an award does not itself guarantee a job or pay the full amount upfront.

Students can ask the financial aid office whether Work-Study positions are available to them, how openings are posted and whether any approved off-campus positions qualify. Separately, Herzing's career-services resources may help with resumes, interview preparation and job searches. Career assistance is useful, but it should not be mistaken for a verified job offer or an employment outcome.
