For 2024-25, reported full-time undergraduate tuition at South University-Savannah was $17,100, with $795 in required fees. The reported in-state and out-of-state amounts were the same. Those charges alone do not represent the full cost of attending.

• Full-time undergraduate tuition: $17,100 for 2024-25.
• Required undergraduate fees: $795 for 2024-25.
• Reported part-time undergraduate tuition: $475 per credit hour for 2024-25.
• Reported full-time graduate tuition: $16,056, plus $555 in required fees, for 2024-25.

Students also need to budget for books, supplies, transportation, living expenses, and any program-specific costs. A reported room-and-board estimate should not be mistaken for a South University residence-hall or meal-plan price: the institution does not report college-operated undergraduate housing.

Financial aid can change the amount a student pays, but borrowing reduces an immediate bill by creating a future repayment obligation. In the 2024-25 aid figures, the average net price reported for families with annual income of $48,000 or less was $30,147. Net price is an average after grant aid, not an individual quote; a personalized aid offer and cost-of-attendance estimate are more useful for deciding affordability.

Eligible students may seek federal grants and loans through the FAFSA and ask the financial aid office about Georgia assistance, institutional awards, and military education benefits that apply to their program. The reported average undergraduate grant award was $6,494, while 73% of students were reported as having student loans. Compare grants and scholarships separately from loans when reviewing an offer.

What are the work-study opportunities at South University-Savannah?

South University reports career services that include individual and group counseling for undergraduates, résumé preparation, interview workshops, employer recruitment, and opportunities to connect with alumni. These services can support a job search, but they are not evidence that a student will receive a job offer.

Federal Work-Study, when included in an eligible student's financial aid offer, is earned through an approved job rather than paid automatically like a grant. Students interested in it should submit the FAFSA, ask the financial aid office whether they qualify and whether positions are available, and confirm how to apply. A regular part-time job or a required clinical placement is not automatically a Federal Work-Study position.

For career preparation, students can ask the career services office about appointments, employer events, and help locating internships relevant to their degree. The university does not report an internship requirement for every student; individual programs may have their own practical-training rules.
