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

For 2024-25, reported full-time undergraduate tuition at Ohio Christian University was $17,840, with $1,350 in required fees. The reported figures were the same for in-state and out-of-state students, putting tuition and required fees at $19,190 before living expenses and aid.

• Full-time undergraduate tuition and required fees, 2024-25: $19,190.
• Typical annual room charge: $5,040.
• Typical annual board charge: $5,254.
• Tuition, required fees, and those typical room-and-board charges combined: $29,484, before books, transportation, personal expenses, and other applicable costs.

That combined figure is not a complete cost-of-attendance budget, and it should not be used for a student who will live elsewhere or take courses at a different rate. Reported part-time undergraduate tuition was $450 per credit hour. Graduate tuition and fees follow separate rates.

Published charges are also different from net price, which accounts for grant and scholarship aid. Reported net prices vary substantially by family income; for students in the $48,001-$75,000 income band, the average was $15,292. An individual aid offer - not an average - will show the most useful comparison between schools. Applicants should use a current program-specific cost estimate because published tuition figures from different reporting years or program formats should not be combined into one annual bill.

What are the work-study opportunities at Ohio Christian University?

Students looking for paid work should distinguish Federal Work-Study from an ordinary campus job. Federal Work-Study, when available to an eligible student, is need-based aid tied to paid employment; receiving an award generally does not place a student automatically in a job.

The financial aid office can clarify whether an applicant has a work-study award and how positions are posted. Students can also ask about campus employment that does not require work-study eligibility. For career preparation, the university reports offering individual and group career counseling, résumé help, interview workshops, a job bank, job fairs, and employer recruitment. Those services support a job search but are not employment guarantees or substitutes for checking a program's internship requirements.

Financial aid figures show that aid reached the reported undergraduate cohort, while 42% of students received loans. Applicants should separate grants, which generally do not need repayment, from loans and from wages that must be earned through work.
