University of Wisconsin-Green Bay

What is the cost of studying for a year at University of Wisconsin-Green Bay?

For 2025-26, reported full-time undergraduate tuition and required fees add up to about $8,700 for Wisconsin residents and $17,572 for out-of-state students. Those figures combine tuition and mandatory fees; they are not complete annual living-cost estimates. Rates can differ by course load, program, residency classification, and academic year.

The same reported cost information lists a typical annual room charge of $4,712 and books and supplies of about $800. Dining, transportation, personal expenses, and any other applicable charges must also be considered. Students should not treat the room figure as including a meal plan or add a housing charge to a cost-of-attendance estimate that already includes housing.

Financial aid changes the amount a student may need to pay. Reported average net price was $9,166 for students from families with annual income up to $48,000 and $11,169 for the next reported income band, from $48,001 to $75,000. Net price is an average cost after grant and scholarship aid, not an individual quote. Reported figures also show that 81% of students received some form of financial aid and 27% had student loans; the kinds and amounts of aid differ substantially.

Eligible students can seek federal grants and loans, Wisconsin aid, and university scholarships by completing the required financial aid applications and meeting applicable deadlines. Veteran and military education benefits may provide another funding route for qualifying students. A useful comparison is the university's current, individualized aid offer alongside its current cost-of-attendance budget - not tuition alone.

What are the work-study opportunities at University of Wisconsin-Green Bay?

UW-Green Bay students can pursue part-time work as well as career-building experiences, but a campus job, a Federal Work-Study award, and an internship are not interchangeable. Federal Work-Study is need-based financial aid that generally requires an eligible aid application and an available position; an award does not mean wages are paid without working.

Students may also seek regular student jobs that are not funded through Work-Study. They should compare posted positions for hours, location, eligibility, and compatibility with classes. An internship may provide academic credit, pay, both, or neither, depending on the arrangement and program rules.

For longer-term career planning, UW-Green Bay reports individual and group counseling, résumé help, interview preparation, career-interest tools, job listings, job fairs, employer recruiting, and alumni networking opportunities. These services can help students search and prepare; they should not be confused with verified job-placement guarantees.
