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

For 2025-26, reported full-time undergraduate tuition and required fees totaled approximately $6,306 for Utah residents and $18,712 for nonresidents. The totals combine published tuition with required fees; they are not a complete annual cost of attendance.

  • Utah-resident undergraduate tuition: $5,434; required fees: $872.
  • Nonresident undergraduate tuition: $17,374; required fees: $872.
  • Typical annual room and board charge: $9,434.
  • Reported books and supplies allowance: $900.

Adding those reported tuition, fee, room-and-board, and book figures gives roughly $16,640 for a resident or $28,580 for a nonresident. These are illustrative combinations of reported 2024-25 charges, not full budgets: transportation, personal expenses, course-specific supplies, and individual housing choices can change the total. Part-time and graduate students face different rates.

What a student ultimately pays also depends on aid. Among students in the reported financial-aid data, 90% received some form of aid and 15% had student loans; the average undergraduate grant award was $7,206. For families with annual income up to $48,000, the reported average net price was $13,214. Net price is a historical average after grant aid, not a quote for an individual applicant.

Eligible students may combine federal or state grants, institutional scholarships, veteran education benefits, savings, work earnings, and loans. The FAFSA is the starting point for federal aid, while particular scholarships or state programs can have their own applications and deadlines. A personalized aid offer and current cost-of-attendance budget are more useful for a final decision than the published tuition figure alone.

What are the work-study opportunities at Utah Tech University?

Utah Tech students can pursue part-time employment alongside classes, while eligible students may also seek Federal Work-Study positions. Work-Study is need-based financial aid earned through an approved job; it is not an upfront tuition discount, and an award does not by itself place a student in a position.

Students should review their aid offer for Work-Study eligibility and use the university's student-employment listings to find and apply for openings. Other campus jobs may be open to students without Work-Study. Hours, pay, and scheduling vary by employer, so a student with clinical placements or a demanding course load should consider how a job fits the academic calendar.

Career support is a related but distinct service. Utah Tech reports career counseling, résumé assistance, career-interest assessment, interview preparation, job fairs, and employer recruitment for undergraduates. These services can help students explore majors or seek internships and jobs; they do not establish an individual student's employment outcome.
