What is the cost of studying for a year at Herzing University-Madison?

For 2024-25, reported full-time undergraduate tuition at Herzing University-Madison was $12,360, with $1,090 in required fees. The published in-state and out-of-state figures were the same. A reported part-time undergraduate charge was $515 per credit hour; actual bills depend on enrollment and program requirements.

Tuition and fees are not the full cost of attendance. Students also need to budget for books and supplies, transportation, personal expenses and housing and food if applicable. Reported books-and-supplies costs were $1,090, while a $9,819 room-and-board figure represents an expense measure, not a charge for a Herzing residence hall. Program equipment, clinical requirements or travel may change an individual budget.

Net price estimates the amount remaining after grant and scholarship aid, rather than the amount due on a tuition bill. The reported average net price was $23,227 for students from families earning up to $48,000. That figure can exceed tuition and fees because it accounts for broader attendance expenses. In 2024-25 reporting, 97% of students received financial aid and 69% had student loans; receiving aid does not mean all costs were covered by grants.

Eligible students may be able to use federal grants and loans, applicable Wisconsin aid, institutional scholarships or military education benefits. The Free Application for Federal Student Aid, or FAFSA, is the usual starting point for federal aid. A personalized financial aid offer and program-specific cost-of-attendance budget are more useful for planning than the published tuition figure alone.

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

Students seeking income while enrolled should distinguish Federal Work-Study from ordinary part-time employment. Work-Study, when available to an eligible student, is need-based aid earned through a qualifying job; it is not a grant paid in advance or a guarantee of a position.

Applicants interested in Work-Study should indicate that interest through the financial aid process and ask the financial aid office whether eligible positions are available for their program and location. A job with an outside employer is generally separate from a financial aid award. Likewise, an internship or clinical placement may provide experience without being a paid job.

Herzing University also describes career services as a source of job-search support. Students can ask about help with résumés, interview preparation and employer connections in their field, while checking whether any advertised placement is paid, required for the degree or arranged by the student. Career assistance is not a verified employment outcome.
