What is the cost of studying for a year at University of Phoenix-Arizona?

For the 2024-25 reporting year, University of Phoenix-Arizona reported annual full-time undergraduate tuition of $9,552 for both Arizona and out-of-state students, with $0 in required fees in that reporting category. Graduate full-time tuition was reported at $15,208. These are historical institutional figures, not a personalized quote for a current program or course schedule.

  • Reported full-time undergraduate tuition: $9,552 per academic year, in state or out of state.
  • Reported full-time graduate tuition: $15,208 per academic year, in state or out of state.
  • Reported books and supplies estimate: $1,416.
  • Reported room-and-board budget figure: $7,630; this is not a charge for university-owned housing.

Actual tuition depends on the credential, credits taken, and applicable current rates. Students should request a program-specific estimate that identifies required credits, tuition, books or digital materials, and any other applicable expenses. Transportation, internet access, and personal living costs may also matter. Do not add the reported room-and-board figure as though the university sells a residence-hall and meal-plan package.

Net price estimates the amount remaining after grant and scholarship aid for a defined student group; it is not the same as tuition. In the 2024-25 data, the average net price for students from families earning $0-$48,000 was $13,833. Students whose families earned $75,001-$110,000 had an average of $17,177. Individual aid offers can differ considerably.

Financial aid can include federal grants for eligible students, loans, applicable scholarships, and military or veterans' education benefits. Students generally begin the federal aid process with the FAFSA. The institutional figures report that 93% of students received some form of financial aid and 63% used student loans; the latter is a reminder to compare a full degree plan, not just a single course's price. Applicants should check grant eligibility, borrowing limits, benefit rules, and their program's eligibility before treating any aid as assured.

What are the work-study opportunities at University of Phoenix-Arizona?

University of Phoenix students may be able to combine study with employment, but a flexible course schedule is not itself a student job or a Federal Work-Study award. Federal Work-Study, when available to an eligible student, is need-based aid earned through an approved job rather than money automatically credited to tuition.

Applicants seeking student employment should ask the financial aid office whether their program and location participate in Federal Work-Study, whether they have an award, and how approved jobs are posted. Ordinary part-time work arranged independently does not require a work-study award. Similarly, an internship may provide experience without being paid, awarding academic credit, or meeting a program requirement; University of Phoenix does not require an internship of every student.

For career development, the university provides career-oriented resources for exploring roles and preparing for a job search. Students should check which advising, résumé, interview-preparation, and job-search services are included with their enrollment and whether access continues after graduation. Career support is a service, not a verified job-placement outcome.
