Oklahoma City University

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

Oklahoma City University's reported 2024-25 full-time undergraduate tuition was $29,804, with $4,950 in required fees, for $34,754 before living and other expenses. The reported in-state and out-of-state amounts were the same. Published charges and an individual student's cost after aid are different figures.

• Tuition and required fees: $34,754 for the reported 2024-25 undergraduate year.
• Typical room and board: $11,664 for the reported year.
• Books and supplies: $2,250 in the reported estimate.

Those three reported categories total $48,668. That is not a complete personal cost-of-attendance budget: transportation, personal expenses, and program-specific costs may add to it. Housing and dining charges also depend on the choices available to a student. Graduate and professional programs have different pricing, so applicants should use their own program's current annual budget rather than the undergraduate total.

For context, the reported average net price was $18,079 for students from families with annual income up to $48,000, compared with $29,358 for those above $110,000. Net price reflects costs after applicable grant and scholarship aid in the measured population; it is not a quote for an individual applicant. Compare current aid offers using the same academic year and include any loans as money that must generally be repaid.

What are the work-study opportunities at Oklahoma City University?

OCU students may seek part-time campus employment, and eligible students may be considered for Federal Work-Study through the financial-aid process. A work-study award establishes eligibility to earn up to an offered amount; it is not a payment made automatically or a guarantee of a job.

Students interested in work-study should complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, review their aid offer, and ask where OCU posts student positions and how payroll hours are approved. Ordinary campus jobs may have different funding and eligibility rules. Internships are different again: they may provide academic credit, wages, both, or neither, depending on the placement. OCU's career services can help students explore work and internships through counseling, résumé and interview preparation, job listings, employer events, and alumni connections.
