Westminster University

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

Westminster's published undergraduate price is substantially higher than its average price after grants. In the 2024-25 IPEDS figures, full-time undergraduate tuition was $43,008 for both Utah residents and nonresidents, with $520 in required fees. Those figures alone exclude living expenses and other costs.

• Full-time undergraduate tuition and required fees, 2024-25: $43,528.
• Reported typical annual room and board: $15,035.
• Reported books and supplies: $1,000.

Adding those reported items produces $59,563, but that is not a complete official cost-of-attendance budget: transportation and personal expenses can add to it, and an individual student's housing arrangement may differ. Graduate tuition is priced separately and should not be combined with the undergraduate estimate.

Grant assistance can change the picture. In the reported aid figures, all students in the measured group received some form of financial aid, and the average undergraduate grant award was $33,463. The average net price was $24,138 for families with annual income up to $48,000; averages by income band are not personalized offers. About 66% of students in the reported group used student loans, so a lower immediate bill does not necessarily mean an education is debt-free.

Eligible students may combine institutional scholarships with federal or state grants, loans, and other assistance. Completing the FAFSA and reviewing Westminster's scholarship requirements are practical first steps. Compare a personal aid offer by separating grants and scholarships, which generally do not need repayment, from loans and expected earnings from work.

What are the work-study opportunities at Westminster University?

Westminster students can look for part-time work and career-building experience while enrolled, but Federal Work-Study, ordinary student employment, and internships serve different purposes. Federal Work-Study is need-based aid for eligible students; it is earned through an approved job rather than paid automatically as a tuition discount.

Students interested in Work-Study should complete the FAFSA, review their aid offer, and ask the financial aid office how eligible students find open positions. A student without a Work-Study award may still be able to apply for jobs that do not require one. Availability, hiring decisions, and hours depend on the position.

The career center offers job-search support, résumé preparation, interviews or employer connections, and individual career planning. An internship may provide academic credit, pay, both, or neither, depending on the opportunity and program rules. Westminster does not report a university-wide internship requirement for every student, so applicants should inspect the requirements of their intended major.
