Oklahoma Wesleyan University

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

Oklahoma Wesleyan University's published charges are only the starting point for an annual budget. For 2025-26, reported full-time undergraduate tuition was the same for Oklahoma residents and out-of-state students: $31,550, plus $2,000 in required fees.

• Full-time undergraduate tuition and required fees, 2025-26: $35,872.
• Typical academic-year room charge: $5,410; typical board charge: $4,980.
• Reported books and supplies estimate: $1,392.

Adding those reported figures produces $45,332 for tuition, required fees, room, board, and books and supplies. This is not a complete cost of attendance: transportation, personal expenses, and any program-specific costs may add to the budget. A commuter or a student in a different housing or meal arrangement would face a different total. Graduate and part-time tuition are priced differently and should not be estimated from the full-time undergraduate figure.

Financial aid changes what a student may pay, but aid packages differ. For families with annual income at or below $48,000, the reported average net price was $22,831; for those with income from $48,001 to $75,000, it was $28,645. Net price reflects costs after applicable grant and scholarship aid, not necessarily the amount due immediately or the amount a student can cover without borrowing. Use the current-year bill and an individual aid offer for an enrollment decision rather than combining charges from different years.

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

Students looking for part-time work should distinguish Federal Work-Study from other campus jobs. Federal Work-Study is need-based financial aid for eligible students; a work-study award generally permits a student to earn wages through an approved job rather than providing the full award as an upfront tuition credit.

Eligibility depends on the student's financial aid application and the university's available funding and positions. Other campus employment may have different eligibility rules. Students should ask the financial aid office where openings are posted, whether a job requires a work-study award, how hiring works, and how many hours can fit around their classes. An internship is different again: it may carry academic credit or provide career experience, and it is not automatically a paid student job.

Career support is available to undergraduates through individual and group career planning, résumé assistance, career-interest testing, a job bank, and employer recruitment services. Those services can help with a search, but they are not a guarantee of placement.
