University of Oklahoma-Health Sciences Center

What is the cost of studying for a year at University of Oklahoma-Health Sciences Center?

Published tuition is only part of the annual cost of attending OU Health Sciences. In IPEDS figures for 2024-25, average full-time undergraduate tuition and required fees totaled $7,925 for Oklahoma residents and $25,714 for nonresidents. The corresponding graduate tuition-and-fee totals were $7,447 and $22,999. Professional-program charges may differ from these broad averages.

• Full-time undergraduate resident: $5,539 tuition plus $2,386 required fees.
• Full-time undergraduate nonresident: $23,328 tuition plus $2,386 required fees.
• Full-time graduate resident: $5,431 tuition plus $2,016 required fees.
• Full-time graduate nonresident: $20,983 tuition plus $2,016 required fees.

A separately reported median annual room-and-board charge is $16,200; it is not included in the tuition-and-fee totals above and may not reflect an individual student's housing choice. Books, equipment, transportation, personal expenses and program-specific clinical costs can add to the budget. The amount a student ultimately pays depends on residency classification, program, enrollment level and aid.

Eligible students may use grants, scholarships, federal loans and military education benefits. Among undergraduate grant recipients in the reported data, the average grant award was $6,291; 52% of students were reported as receiving student loans. Neither figure is an individual aid offer. Applicants should review the program's current cost-of-attendance budget and complete the required financial-aid application to assess their own likely cost.

What are the work-study opportunities at University of Oklahoma-Health Sciences Center?

OU Health Sciences students may find part-time work through university employment and, if eligible, Federal Work-Study. Work-Study is a financial-aid program: eligibility generally depends on financial need and the student's aid award, and receiving an award does not itself place a student in a job.

Other campus jobs are ordinary paid employment and may have different eligibility rules. Research, administrative and health-related positions can provide relevant experience, but their schedules may need to fit around labs and clinical placements. Students should check current university job postings and their financial-aid account, then distinguish wages earned through work from grants that do not require employment.

Career support is a separate resource. Reported services include individual career counseling, résumé assistance, interview preparation, job fairs, employer recruitment and alumni networking. Applicants should check which services are available to their college and whether a program offers specialized placement or residency advising.
