Strayer University-Pennsylvania

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

For 2024-25, reported full-time undergraduate tuition at Strayer University-Pennsylvania was $13,725, with $195 in required fees, for $13,920 in tuition and fees. The reported in-state and out-of-state charges were the same.

• Full-time undergraduate tuition and required fees, 2024-25: $13,920.
• Part-time undergraduate tuition, 2024-25: $339 per credit hour, before applicable fees.
• Full-time graduate tuition and required fees, 2024-25: $15,135.
• Part-time graduate tuition, 2024-25: $533 per credit hour, before applicable fees.

These are published charges, not a complete personal budget. Books and other course materials, technology, transportation, and living expenses can increase the amount a student needs for the year. Because Strayer does not operate undergraduate housing at this location, students must budget separately for their own accommodation and food rather than adding a campus room-and-board charge. Part-time students should calculate their expected courses and credits instead of applying the full-time annual figure to their plans.

Financial aid can lower what a student pays out of pocket, but loans must be repaid. Reported undergraduate grant recipients received an average of $6,123 in grant aid; that average is not an award estimate for an individual applicant. A personalized aid offer and cost-of-attendance budget provide a better basis for comparing the amount to pay, borrow, or cover from earnings.

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

Students interested in earning money while enrolled should distinguish Federal Work-Study from an ordinary part-time job. Federal Work-Study, when available to an eligible student, is a need-based financial aid program that pays wages for qualifying work; it is not an automatic job assignment or a reduction in the tuition bill.

Applicants can indicate interest in work-study through the Free Application for Federal Student Aid and ask Strayer's financial aid office whether it is offered for their program and location, how jobs are posted, and whether an award depends on a position being available. Ordinary employment with a local employer does not require a work-study award, although its hours may be harder to coordinate with coursework. Internships, when available, serve a different purpose and should be assessed for credit rules, pay, and scheduling separately.
