Zane State College

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

For 2024-25, reported full-time undergraduate tuition was $5,970 for Ohio residents and $11,730 for out-of-state students. Required fees were reported at $36, bringing those tuition-and-fee figures to $6,006 and $11,766, respectively. These are published charges, not an individual student's final bill.

• Ohio resident, full-time tuition and required fees: $6,006 for 2024-25.
• Out-of-state, full-time tuition and required fees: $11,766 for 2024-25.
• Reported part-time tuition: $199 per credit for Ohio residents or $391 per credit for out-of-state students, before applicable fees.
• Reported books and supplies allowance: $1,600; actual spending depends on courses and materials.

A complete cost of attendance also allows for living expenses, transportation, and personal expenses. Because Zane State does not provide college-operated housing, a living-expense allowance should not be mistaken for a residence-hall charge. Students should use a current, individualized aid offer and budget to distinguish direct college charges from expenses they pay elsewhere.

In the reported aid data, average net price varied by family income. It was $7,668 for students in the lowest listed income band, $0-$48,000, and $13,460 for those in the band above $110,000. Net price reflects costs after grant aid on average; it is not a quoted price for a particular student. In 2024-25, 69% of students received financial aid and 11% had student loans. Eligible students may seek federal and state grants, scholarships, and other assistance by completing the required financial aid application; the financial aid office can explain current deadlines and eligibility, including rules for military education benefits.

What are the work-study opportunities at Zane State College?

Students looking for paid work should distinguish Federal Work-Study from ordinary part-time employment. Work-Study is need-based financial aid for eligible students, but an award does not itself place a student in a job; the student must obtain an available position and earn wages for hours worked.

The financial aid office is the appropriate place to confirm current Work-Study availability, eligibility, and hiring procedures. Students can also look for regular jobs that do not require Work-Study eligibility. Separately, Zane State reports access to individual career counseling, job-placement assistance, and on-campus employer recruitment for undergraduates. Those services may help with a job search, but they should not be interpreted as a promise of employment or confused with a required internship.
