• Full-time undergraduate tuition, 2024-25: $13,725.
• Required undergraduate fees, 2024-25: $195.
• Part-time undergraduate tuition, 2024-25: $339 per credit hour.

Those figures are tuition and fees, not a complete cost of attendance or a current-term price quote. Without institution-operated housing, students still need to budget for their own housing and food, as well as transportation, supplies, and personal expenses. Course load can also change the annual total. Applicants should request a program-specific estimate for the term they plan to start.

Eligible students may reduce what they pay through federal grants, other qualifying grants, institutional assistance, employer benefits, or military education benefits; loans must generally be repaid. The reported average undergraduate grant award was $6,278 among recipients. A separate reported student-loan measure was 91%, which underscores the importance of reviewing borrowing terms rather than assuming published tuition will be covered by grants. To compare offers, students should use their own aid award and full expense budget, not subtract an average grant from tuition as though everyone receives it.

What are the work-study opportunities at Strayer University-Alabama?

Students considering work while attending Strayer University-Alabama should separate three possibilities: a Federal Work-Study award, an ordinary part-time job, and a course-related internship. They have different eligibility rules and do not provide the same financial or academic benefits.

Federal Work-Study, when available to an eligible student, is need-based aid earned through an approved job; it is not an automatic tuition discount or a guarantee of placement. Students should check their individual financial-aid offer and ask the financial-aid office how approved positions are advertised. An outside job does not become Work-Study simply because the employee is enrolled in college.

For career development, Strayer students should identify the career support currently available to their program and location, such as appointments, résumé feedback, job-search resources, or employer events. The availability of a service should not be confused with a verified internship placement or employment outcome.
