Weatherford College

What is the cost of studying for a year at Weatherford College?

For 2024-25, Weatherford College reported annual full-time undergraduate tuition of $6,600 for Texas residents and $9,360 for out-of-state students. Reported required fees were $1,500, making tuition plus those fees $8,100 and $10,860, respectively. These figures do not include housing, food, books, transportation, or personal expenses.

• Texas-resident full-time tuition and required fees, 2025-26: $8,100.
• Out-of-state full-time tuition and required fees, 2025-26: $11,240.
• Reported part-time tuition per credit hour, 2025-26: $220 for in-state students and $312 for out-of-state students; applicable fees can add to the bill.

A student's cost of attendance is broader than the bill from the college: it estimates living expenses, supplies, transportation, and other allowed costs as well. Net price instead estimates what remains after grant and scholarship aid. For students from families with annual income of $48,000 or less, the reported average net price was $7,504. That is a group average, not a price quote for an individual applicant.

Financial aid can change the amount a student pays. In the 2024-25 reporting cycle, 70% of students received financial aid and 15% had student loans. Eligible students can seek federal grants, loans, and work-study through the FAFSA, as well as applicable Texas aid and college scholarships. A personalized aid offer and the college's current cost-of-attendance budget are the right documents for comparing an actual enrollment plan with other schools.

What are the work-study opportunities at Weatherford College?

Weatherford College students may be able to combine coursework with part-time employment, including Federal Work-Study when they qualify and positions are available. Work-study is a financial-aid program, not a guarantee of a job or a grant paid without working.

Federal Work-Study eligibility depends on a student's aid application and award. An eligible student still needs to find and secure a suitable position, work the assigned hours, and receive wages under the job's terms. Other campus or local part-time jobs may be open to students who do not have a work-study award, but those jobs follow the employer's hiring process rather than federal aid rules.

For career-related experience, the college's job bank, employer recruitment, and career counseling can help students look for openings. An internship or paid job may build experience, but it is distinct from a work-study award and is not required of every Weatherford student.
