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

For 2025-26 reporting, Southwestern Christian University's full-time undergraduate tuition was $21,316 for both Oklahoma residents and out-of-state students, with no separately reported required undergraduate fees. A typical annual room charge was $6,200, and a typical board charge was $3,500. Adding those published components gives $31,600, but that is not a complete cost-of-attendance estimate: books, transportation, and personal expenses may also apply.

• Full-time undergraduate tuition, 2024-25: $21,900.
• Typical annual room and board charges: $9,700 combined.
• Reported part-time undergraduate tuition: $750 per credit hour.
• Reported full-time graduate tuition: $9,990; part-time graduate tuition: $555 per credit hour.

Published charges are different from net price, which accounts for grant and scholarship aid under the relevant reporting definition. Among students in the reported income categories, the average net price was $16,903 for families earning up to $48,000 and $26,620 for families earning above $110,000. Those averages are not personalized aid offers.

Financial aid can include federal grants for eligible students, applicable state assistance, institutional scholarships, and federal loans. In the reported aid population, all students received some form of financial aid, while 46% used student loans. The average reported grant award was $14,013. To compare an actual offer with other colleges, use the university's current itemized cost-of-attendance budget and separate grants, which generally do not require repayment, from loans and earnings from work.

What are the work-study opportunities at Southwestern Christian University?

Southwestern Christian University reports individual and group career counseling for undergraduates, individual job-placement assistance, and an internship requirement. Students should confirm how the internship is built into their particular major, including prerequisites, supervision, credit, and any costs associated with an off-campus placement.

Student employment is a different matter from an internship. Federal Work-Study, when included in an eligible student's aid package, provides the opportunity to earn wages through an approved job; it is not a grant paid in advance or a guarantee of a position. Ordinary part-time employment does not require a Work-Study award. Students seeking campus work should ask the financial aid office how available positions are posted, whether Work-Study eligibility is required, and how many hours fit with their course load.

Career counseling and job-placement assistance describe services, not verified employment results. Students who want help with a résumé, interviews, or a major-related job search should ask which appointments and employer contacts are currently available for their program.
