Strayer University-South Carolina

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

For 2024-25, the reported full-time undergraduate tuition at Strayer University-South Carolina was $13,725, with $195 in required fees. The resulting $13,920 covers reported tuition and required fees, not a complete annual budget. The reported amounts were the same for in-state and out-of-state undergraduates.

Reported part-time undergraduate tuition was $339 per credit hour. At the graduate level, full-time tuition was $14,940 plus $195 in required fees, while reported part-time tuition was $533 per credit hour. These figures describe the cited reporting year; a current bill depends on the student's program, course load, term, and the university's presently published charges.

A complete cost-of-attendance estimate also needs allowances for books or course materials, technology, transportation, housing, food, and personal expenses. Students without university housing still have living costs. For families with annual income of $48,000 or less, the reported average net price was $17,979. Net price is a calculated cost after grant or scholarship aid for the measured group, not an individual quote or simply the tuition bill.

Federal and institutional aid can change what a student pays, but loans reduce the amount due now rather than the cost ultimately owed. Reported aid figures show substantial borrowing among the measured students, making a personalized aid offer and a term-by-term borrowing estimate more useful than published tuition alone.

What are the work-study opportunities at Strayer University-South Carolina?

A student job, a Federal Work-Study award, and an internship are three different arrangements. Prospective Strayer University-South Carolina students should confirm which, if any, are available to them rather than assuming that admission includes a campus job.

Federal Work-Study is a need-based financial aid program in which eligible students earn wages through approved employment; an award is not money automatically credited in full to a tuition bill. Eligibility ordinarily begins with the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), but students also need an available position and must work the hours to earn the wages. A regular off-campus part-time job does not become Federal Work-Study merely because its worker is a student.

Strayer's career support may also be relevant to students seeking internships or ordinary employment, but those opportunities are distinct from aid-funded jobs. Students interested in work should ask the financial aid office about Work-Study participation and the career-services team about current job-search resources and employer events.
