University of Redlands

What is the cost of studying for a year at University of Redlands?

Redlands has a high published undergraduate price, but financial aid can substantially change an individual student's bill. For 2024-25, reported full-time undergraduate tuition was $60,128 for both California and out-of-state students, with $750 in required fees. The reported room-and-board charge was $18,754.

Adding those 2024-25 tuition, fee, and room-and-board figures produces $79,632 before books, transportation, and personal expenses. That is not a complete cost-of-attendance estimate or a prediction of what every student will owe. Housing choices, meal plans, program charges, and course load can change costs; graduate and part-time programs have different pricing.

Most reported undergraduates received some form of financial aid, and the average grant aid reported for undergraduate recipients was $39,564. Grants and scholarships generally do not need to be repaid, whereas loans do. Reported average net prices varied by family-income band: approximately $25,728 for families earning up to $48,000 and $38,257 for those earning above $110,000. These averages are not individual offers, and they may include expenses beyond the university bill.

Eligible students may be considered for federal grants and loans, California aid, and institutional merit- or need-based assistance. Applicants should complete the financial aid applications required for their situation and compare the university's current award letter with a current, itemized cost-of-attendance estimate. In particular, separate grants from loans and work-study: all three can appear in a financing plan, but only grants directly reduce the cost without repayment or hours of work.

What are the work-study opportunities at University of Redlands?

Redlands students may seek part-time campus employment, while eligible students can also be considered for Federal Work-Study. Work-study is a need-based federal student-aid program that helps fund wages from an eligible job; it is not an automatic discount on tuition.

Students generally need to meet financial-aid eligibility requirements and obtain a job to earn a work-study award. They should check their aid notice for eligibility, then follow Redlands' student-employment application process for available positions. A student who does not qualify for Federal Work-Study may still be able to apply for jobs funded through other campus budgets. Off-campus work, internships, and work-study positions have different hiring and credit arrangements.

For longer-term career planning, Redlands reports access to individual and group counseling, résumé help, interview preparation, job postings and fairs, employer recruitment, and alumni networking. Those services can assist with a job search, but they should not be read as a guarantee of employment or as a substitute for checking whether a particular major offers relevant internships.
