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

Quincy University is a private institution, and its reported undergraduate tuition does not differ for Illinois and out-of-state students. The 2024-25 full-time undergraduate tuition figure is $37,140, with no separately reported required undergraduate fees in that same reporting. Tuition alone is not a complete annual cost of attendance.

  • 2025-26 full-time undergraduate tuition: $38,400 for in-state or out-of-state students.
  • 2025-26 part-time undergraduate tuition: $1,025 per credit hour in the reported schedule.
  • A separately reported room-and-board figure is about $14,000 for an academic year; it should not be combined with tuition from another reporting year and presented as one official total.

Published charges change by year, housing choice, meal plan, and course load. A personal budget must also account for books and materials, transportation, and other living expenses. The university's current cost-of-attendance estimate and an individualized aid offer are more useful than adding figures drawn from different years.

Grant aid can make the amount paid substantially lower than the sticker price. In the reported aid data, all students in the measured group received some form of financial aid, and 54% had student loans; receiving aid does not mean receiving a full-tuition grant. Average net prices also vary by family-income group and reflect past recipients, not a quote for a new applicant. Eligible students may seek federal and state grants, institutional scholarships, and federal loans by completing the required financial-aid application process. Illinois residents should check state-grant eligibility, while military-connected students should confirm how education benefits interact with institutional aid.

What are the work-study opportunities at Quincy University?

Quincy students can pursue part-time work and career-development support, but a campus job, Federal Work-Study award, and internship serve different purposes. Federal Work-Study is a need-based aid program: an eligible award permits a student to earn wages through qualifying work, rather than providing the entire award automatically as a tuition discount.

Students interested in employment should ask the financial-aid or student-employment office how openings are posted, whether an aid award is required for a particular position, and how hours are scheduled around classes. Ordinary part-time jobs may be available independently of Federal Work-Study. An internship, meanwhile, may be tied to academic credit or professional experience and should not be assumed to be paid.

For longer-term planning, reported career-center services include individual and group counseling, interest testing, résumé preparation, interview workshops, job listings, employer recruitment, job fairs, and alumni networking. Those services can help a student prepare and apply; their availability is not an employment or salary outcome.
