For the 2024-25 reporting year, published full-time undergraduate tuition at Sitting Bull College was $3,600, with $410 in required fees. The reported amounts were the same for in-state and out-of-state undergraduates, bringing tuition and required fees to $4,010 before living and other expenses.
Books, transportation, and personal expenses add to the amount a student needs to budget. A room-and-board figure also may not match the cost of a particular housing arrangement or meal option, so adding it to tuition does not produce a reliable individual bill.
Financial aid changes the picture. In the 2024-25 data, 86% of students received financial aid, and the reported average grant award was $5,414. Average net price - an estimate of cost after grant and scholarship aid - was $3,739 for students from families with annual income of $48,000 or less and $3,122 for the next reported income band, $48,001-$75,000. These are group averages, not quoted prices for a new applicant. Students seeking aid should complete the FAFSA and ask the financial aid office about institutional, tribal, state, and veteran benefits for which they may qualify. The reported share of students with loans was 0%; that historical figure does not establish an individual student's eligibility or future borrowing needs.
Sitting Bull College students can use career-planning services while exploring employment, but a job, internship, and Federal Work-Study award are different opportunities. Students interested in campus work should ask the financial aid office which positions are available and whether any require Federal Work-Study eligibility.
Federal Work-Study, when offered to an eligible student, is financial aid earned through an approved job; it is not a grant paid in full at the start of a term and does not guarantee a position. Ordinary part-time jobs have separate hiring rules. Applicants can compare expected hours and pay with their class schedules before counting wages in an education budget.
The college reports individual and group career counseling for undergraduates, résumé preparation, a career library, job fairs, and on-campus employer recruitment. Those services can support a job search, but their availability is not a measure of job placement. Students seeking an internship should check their program requirements and ask an advisor whether a proposed position can carry academic credit; the college does not require an internship of every student.
