University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point

What is the cost of studying for a year at University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point?

For 2024-25, reported full-time undergraduate tuition and required fees totaled about $9,228 for Wisconsin residents and $18,248 for nonresidents at UW-Stevens Point. These are published charges before aid, not a complete cost-of-attendance budget.

• Wisconsin-resident undergraduate tuition: $7,378, plus $1,850 in required fees.
• Nonresident undergraduate tuition: $16,398, plus $1,850 in required fees.
• Reported typical annual room and board: $8,875 combined.
• Reported books and supplies: $416; transportation and personal expenses are additional.

Using those same reported figures, tuition, required fees, room and board, and books add to about $18,519 for a resident undergraduate or $27,539 for a nonresident. Those illustrative sums exclude transportation and personal spending; they should not be treated as the university's full individual aid budget. Commuters and students choosing different housing or meal plans will have different expenses.

Financial aid can change the amount a student ultimately pays. In the reported data, 92% of students received some form of financial aid, and 49% had student loans. Average net price also differed by family income: it was $9,609 for the reported lowest-income bracket and $17,042 for the $75,001-$110,000 bracket. Net price is an average after applicable grant aid, not a price quote for an applicant.

Eligible students may seek federal grants and loans, Wisconsin aid, institutional scholarships, and applicable military or veteran education benefits. Completing the FAFSA and meeting any scholarship or state-aid deadlines are important steps. Because tuition and aid policies change, applicants should compare current published charges with their own financial aid offer rather than relying on an older average.

What are the work-study opportunities at University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point?

UW-Stevens Point students may pursue part-time employment alongside their studies, including campus jobs. Federal Work-Study is a distinct form of need-based financial aid: eligibility is determined through the aid process, and an award does not mean wages are paid without working or that a position is guaranteed.

Students can search for campus openings and ask the financial aid or student employment office how Work-Study positions are posted. Ordinary student jobs may also be open to applicants without a Work-Study award. In either case, students should compare expected hours with their course load and ask how and when wages are paid.

Career services serve a different purpose from wage-based student employment. UW-Stevens Point's career resources can help students explore majors and occupations, prepare application materials, search for internships and jobs, and connect with employers. An internship may provide academic credit, pay, both, or neither, depending on its terms; students should confirm those details before accepting one.
