Millsaps College

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

Millsaps charges the same published full-time undergraduate tuition to in-state and out-of-state students in the 2024-25 figures. Tuition was $41,750, with $2,930 in required fees, for $44,680 before housing, meals, books, and personal expenses.

• 2024-25 undergraduate tuition and required fees: $44,680.
• Typical room and board charge: $14,370 for the academic year.
• Estimated books and supplies: $650; transportation and personal costs are additional.

Adding those listed tuition, fee, room-and-board, and book figures gives $59,700. That is a subtotal, not a complete cost-of-attendance budget: an individual student's housing choice, travel, personal expenses, and other applicable costs can change the total. Part-time undergraduates were charged $1,288 per credit hour in the reported year; graduate charges follow a different schedule.

Published charges are not the same as net price after grants and scholarships. Among students in the reported aid data, the average grant award was $33,766, but an average is not an individual offer. The reported average net price for families with annual income of $48,000 or less was $23,719. Students should compare their own aid offers and the costs likely to recur each year, not subtract a college-wide average grant from the sticker price.

What are the work-study opportunities at Millsaps College?

Millsaps students can seek campus employment, while eligible students may also receive Federal Work-Study as part of a financial-aid offer. Work-Study is a form of aid that supports wages from an eligible job; it is not a grant paid in full at the start of the semester or a guarantee of a position.

Federal Work-Study eligibility is determined through the financial-aid process, including the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, or FAFSA. A student who qualifies generally must still find, apply for, and perform an available job to earn the awarded amount. Other campus jobs may operate outside Work-Study and have different funding and eligibility rules.

Millsaps also reports individual career counseling, résumé help, interview preparation, job listings, employer recruitment, job fairs, and alumni networking opportunities for undergraduates. Those services can support a search for internships or longer-term work, but an internship, a part-time job, and a Work-Study award are distinct. Students balancing work with classes should ask about actual openings, expected hours, and whether wages are paid directly to them or applied through another arrangement.
