For 2024-25, UNA reported full-time undergraduate tuition of $10,200 for Alabama residents and $20,400 for out-of-state students. Adding the reported $1,920 in required fees gives published tuition-and-fee figures of $12,120 and $22,320, respectively. These amounts are not a complete annual cost of attendance.
Adding the listed housing, dining, and books estimates produces $25,770 for an in-state student or $35,970 for an out-of-state student before transportation and personal expenses. Those are illustrations assembled from the same reporting year, not UNA's complete cost-of-attendance budget or a bill every student receives. Actual housing choices, course materials, credit load, and residency classification can change the total.
Published charges also differ from net price, which accounts for grants and scholarships. For families with annual income of $48,000 or less, the reported average net price was $10,127; the figure was $13,903 for the $75,001-$110,000 income band. These are averages for the applicable students, not quotes to an applicant. Financial aid reporting indicates that 98% of students received some form of aid and 32% had student loans. Applicants should compare a current university cost estimate with their own aid offer, especially because these published figures are for 2024-25 rather than a future enrollment year.
UNA students can look for part-time employment alongside their coursework, including jobs for which Federal Work-Study funding is available. Federal Work-Study is need-based aid awarded through the financial-aid process; eligibility and an award do not by themselves place a student in a job.
Students seeking that option should complete the FAFSA, review their aid offer, and follow UNA's student-employment application instructions. Ordinary campus jobs can have different eligibility and funding rules, while internships are usually organized around learning objectives and may be paid or unpaid. Hours, hiring decisions, and whether a position relates to a major depend on the employer and role.
For career development beyond part-time work, UNA's career services include individual and group counseling, résumé assistance, interview preparation, job listings, employer recruitment, job fairs, and alumni networking opportunities. Those services can support a search; they should not be read as a verified job-placement outcome.
