Strayer University-Maryland

What is the cost of studying for a year at Strayer University-Maryland?

For 2024-25, Strayer University-Maryland reported $13,725 in annual full-time undergraduate tuition and $195 in required fees, for a combined published amount of $13,920. The reported figures are the same for in-state and out-of-state undergraduates.

• Full-time undergraduate tuition and required fees: $13,920 for the reported academic year.
• Part-time undergraduate tuition: $339 per credit hour, before applicable fees.
• Full-time graduate tuition and required fees: $15,135 for the reported academic year.
• Part-time graduate tuition: $533 per credit hour, before applicable fees.

These amounts are not a complete cost-of-attendance budget. Students may also need to pay for books or materials, transportation, housing, food and personal expenses. Course load and program requirements can change the bill, so a part-time applicant should calculate costs using the credits needed in each term rather than treating the full-time figure as their price. Published tuition is also different from net price, which accounts for applicable grants and scholarships.

Financial aid can change that net amount. In the reported aid figures, the average undergraduate grant award across the specified grant sources was $6,131, while 73% of the reported student group had student loans. Those figures do not describe what every applicant will receive or borrow. Eligible students may seek federal grants and loans through the FAFSA, along with applicable state, institutional, employer or military education benefits. An individualized aid offer and cost-of-attendance budget are more useful for estimating a student's actual out-of-pocket cost.

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

Students looking for paid work while enrolled should distinguish an ordinary part-time job from Federal Work-Study. Federal Work-Study is a need-based aid program: eligibility, a funding award and an available job are all relevant, and an award is generally earned through work rather than paid upfront against a tuition bill.

Applicants interested in student employment should complete the FAFSA and ask Strayer's financial aid office whether Federal Work-Study positions are offered for their enrollment location and term. They should also ask where positions are posted and whether online students can apply. Separately, Strayer's career support may help students prepare for an external job search; using career services is not the same as receiving a work-study award or a job offer.
