LaGrange College

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

LaGrange College charges the same reported full-time undergraduate tuition to in-state and out-of-state students. For 2024-25, tuition was $34,460, with $940 in required fees. That makes tuition and those fees $35,400 before living costs, books, transportation, and personal expenses.

• Full-time undergraduate tuition and required fees, 2024-25: $35,400.
• Reported annual room and board: $13,496.
• Reported books and supplies: $1,400.

Together, those published components total about $50,296. That is not a complete personal cost-of-attendance estimate: transportation, personal expenses, and program-specific charges may add to it. The reported part-time undergraduate tuition was $1,390 per credit hour; a part-time student's total will depend on enrollment and applicable fees.

Published price and net price are different. After grants and scholarships, reported average net prices varied by family-income group: about $19,322 for the lowest reported income band and $24,549 for families above $110,000. These are group averages, not individual aid offers. In 2024-25 reporting, all students received some form of financial aid, while 68% used student loans; a loan reduces what is due immediately but must generally be repaid. Eligible students may be considered for federal and state grants, institutional scholarships, and military education benefits. The financial aid office can explain application steps and provide an individualized aid offer.

What are the work-study opportunities at LaGrange College?

Students can seek employment while attending LaGrange College, but a campus job, Federal Work-Study award, and internship are not the same thing. Federal Work-Study is need-based financial aid that helps eligible students earn wages through qualifying work; an award does not itself place a student in a job. Other part-time positions may be available outside that program.

Students should review their financial aid offer to see whether Work-Study is included, then ask the financial aid or student employment office how positions are posted and filled. Job hours and earnings depend on the position. An internship may provide academic or professional experience but should not be counted on as paid employment unless its terms explicitly say so.

For broader career planning, the college reports individual and group career counseling, résumé and interview assistance, employer recruitment, and alumni networking opportunities for undergraduates. These services can support a search; they are not evidence that a particular applicant will receive a job offer.
