Young Harris College

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

For 2024-25, reported full-time undergraduate tuition at Young Harris College was $30,800 for both Georgia residents and out-of-state students. Required fees added $1,505, bringing published tuition and mandatory fees to $32,305 before housing, food, books, transportation, or personal expenses.

• Tuition and required fees: $32,305 for the 2024-25 academic year.
• Typical room and board charges: $11,000 for the academic year.
• Reported books and supplies: $1,398.

Those listed items total $44,703, but that is not a complete cost-of-attendance budget: travel, personal expenses, and other applicable costs can raise it. The reported part-time undergraduate tuition rate was $1,025 per credit hour. Graduate students should use their program's separate tuition and expense budget rather than the undergraduate figures.

Published charges are also different from net price, which accounts for grants and scholarships. For 2024-25, the reported average net price for students from families earning $48,000 or less was $17,986. Individual bills can differ considerably; a student's financial aid offer and housing choices provide a more useful estimate than subtracting an average grant from the sticker price.

What are the work-study opportunities at Young Harris College?

Young Harris students can pursue part-time work while enrolled, but an ordinary campus job, Federal Work-Study, and an academic internship are not interchangeable. Federal Work-Study is need-based financial aid earned through approved employment; an award indicates eligibility and a potential earnings limit, not wages paid in advance or a guaranteed position.

Students seeking Work-Study should complete the FAFSA, review their aid offer, and ask the financial aid office how eligible positions are advertised and hired. Students who do not receive Work-Study may still be able to apply for other part-time jobs, subject to available openings and employer requirements. Work schedules should also be considered against travel time, required classes, rehearsals, labs, or athletics commitments.

For longer-term career planning, reported services include individual and group career counseling, interest assessment, résumé help, interview preparation, and résumé referral to employers. These services can support a job search; they are not a verified employment outcome or a substitute for checking whether a particular major requires an internship.
