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

For the 2024-25 reporting year, Waynesburg's listed full-time undergraduate tuition was $28,960, with $1,520 in required fees, for a combined $30,480 before housing and other expenses. The listed tuition and fees were the same for Pennsylvania residents and students from other states.

• Full-time undergraduate tuition and required fees: $30,480 for 2024-25.
• Typical annual room charge: $6,840.
• Typical annual board charge: $6,500.
• Tuition, required fees, room, and board combined: $43,820, before books, transportation, and personal expenses.

The combined figure is an illustration using charges from the same reporting year, not a complete individual cost-of-attendance budget or a current bill. Housing choice, meal plan, program expenses, and enrollment status can change what a student owes. Reported part-time undergraduate tuition was $1,195 per credit hour; part-time students should not assume the full-time annual figure applies to them.

Published prices also differ from net price, which reflects grants and scholarships. Reported average net prices ranged from $11,974 for students from families earning up to $48,000 to $27,921 for those from families earning above $110,000. These are group averages, not aid offers. Waynesburg reported grant aid for students in its financial-aid measures, while 73% received student loans. Applicants should complete the FAFSA if seeking federal aid, review Pennsylvania aid eligibility where applicable, and compare their own itemized aid offer with the full cost of attendance. A loan lowers an immediate bill but must generally be repaid.

What are the work-study opportunities at Waynesburg University?

Waynesburg students can use campus employment and career services to gain experience and help cover expenses, but a job, an internship, and Federal Work-Study are not interchangeable. Federal Work-Study is need-based aid that permits an eligible student to earn wages through an approved job; it is not money automatically deducted from tuition.

Students interested in Work-Study should indicate their interest through the financial-aid process, then check available positions and hiring requirements with the university. Other part-time campus jobs may have different eligibility rules. In either case, hours and earnings depend on the position and should not be treated as guaranteed income when building a budget.

For longer-term career planning, reported services include individual and group counseling, résumé preparation, interview workshops, career-interest assessment, job fairs, employer recruitment, and alumni networking. Students can ask how their department helps arrange field experiences or internships; an internship is not reported as a university-wide graduation requirement.
