What is the cost of studying for a year at Marymount University?

Marymount is a private university, so its published undergraduate tuition is not lower for Virginia residents. In the 2024-25 IPEDS figures, full-time undergraduate tuition was $39,270, with $850 in required fees. The following costs describe different parts of an annual budget and should not be confused with a personalized financial-aid offer.

  • Full-time undergraduate tuition and required fees, 2024-25: $40,120.
  • Reported annual room and board charge: $17,760.
  • Reported books and supplies allowance: $1,500.

Together, those listed items total $59,380, before transportation, personal expenses, and any other applicable costs. It is a planning subtotal, not a complete cost-of-attendance estimate or a current-year bill. Graduate tuition, part-time charges, housing choices, and meal plans follow different pricing rules.

Financial aid can substantially change the amount a student pays. The reported average undergraduate grant award was $24,352, and 99% of the reported undergraduate aid population received some form of aid. Grants need not normally be repaid, whereas loans do. Eligible students may seek federal and state grants, Marymount scholarships, and federal loans through the applicable aid process, including the FAFSA where required; military-connected students should also examine education-benefit eligibility.

For families with annual income of $0-$48,000, the reported average net price was $27,111. Net price accounts for grant aid and covered attendance expenses; it is not simply tuition minus one scholarship. An applicant's actual price will depend on the aid offer, living arrangement, enrollment, and program costs, so the current university cost-of-attendance budget and individual award letter are the figures to compare.

What are the work-study opportunities at Marymount University?

Marymount students can seek part-time work while enrolled and use career services to explore internships and post-college opportunities. Federal Work-Study, when included in an eligible student's aid offer, is a way to earn wages through an approved job - not a grant automatically credited against tuition.

Students interested in Work-Study should complete the required financial-aid application, review their award, and ask how to search and apply for eligible positions. Ordinary part-time campus jobs may have different eligibility rules, and an internship is a separate academic or career-development experience even if it is paid.

Marymount reports career counseling for undergraduates, along with résumé help, interview preparation, career exploration, job fairs, employer recruitment, and alumni networking. Those services can help students prepare applications and find opportunities; they are not evidence that a particular job or internship is guaranteed. Students in majors with required field experience should check how placements are arranged and whether they can be paid.
