Thomas College

What is the cost of studying for a year at Thomas College?

Thomas College charges the same reported full-time undergraduate tuition to in-state and out-of-state students. In 2024-25 reporting, tuition was $30,718 and required fees were $1,106, for a combined $31,824 before housing, food, books, transportation, and personal expenses.

• Reported tuition and required fees: $31,824.
• Reported typical room and board: $14,654.
• Reported books and supplies: $800.

Adding those reported categories produces $47,278 for an academic year before transportation and personal expenses. It is an illustration using the stated reporting figures, not an individual financial-aid offer or a complete current-year budget. A student living off campus will have a different housing and food budget, while a part-time student should check per-credit charges rather than use the full-time figure.

Grants can change the amount a family pays. The reported average undergraduate grant award was $25,253 among recipients, and 98% of students received some form of financial aid. Neither figure means every student receives that grant amount. For aided students from families earning up to $48,000, the reported average net price was $11,904; for the $48,001-$75,000 band, it was $16,227. Net price incorporates aid and eligible attendance costs, so the best planning figure for an applicant is the college's individualized aid offer alongside its current cost-of-attendance budget.

Eligible students may combine institutional scholarships with federal or state grants, loans, and other assistance under applicable rules. Completing the FAFSA and reviewing Thomas's current scholarship and aid deadlines are important steps; veterans and eligible family members should also ask how military education benefits interact with other aid.

What are the work-study opportunities at Thomas College?

Thomas College students can pursue part-time work and use career services, but a campus job, Federal Work-Study award, and internship are not interchangeable. Federal Work-Study is need-based financial aid that permits eligible students to earn wages through qualifying jobs; an award does not itself place a student in a position or arrive as an automatic tuition discount.

The college reports career support that includes individual and group counseling, résumé preparation, interview practice, career-interest assessment, a job bank, employer recruitment, job fairs, and alumni networking. These services may help students explore work and internships even when an internship is not required for every student. A student offered Work-Study should ask the financial aid or student employment office where qualifying openings are posted, how to apply, and whether wages would be paid directly to the student rather than credited to a bill.
