Cost and Financial Aid

Note: Tuition is based on 15-17 semester hours per semester at a rate of $649 per semester hour. Room and board rates are based on standard dorm room and meal plan options.  There is limited availability of smaller dorm rooms at a discounted price.  Full-time 1st and 2nd year students under the age of 21 who are not living at home are required to live on campus. 

Your Actual Cost

1) Check which level of academic scholarship you are eligible for. Once you are admitted, you will be automatically considered for an academic scholarship ranging from $2,000 to $7,000 per year based on your GPA.

2) Apply for financial aid. You will be evaluated for the TWU grant which ranges from 0 to $4,500 depending on your financial need. Both academic scholarship and TWU Grant make up the majority of your TWU financial aid package. Other scholarships, grants, and endowment awards are also available. On-campus employment is also available to students who apply for financial aid.

3) Look for scholarships that are available in organizations where you work, belong to, or conduct business with. Our financial aid website has a list of outside scholarships to get you started.

4) Many students supplement their financial aid package with student loans. The amount you are eligible for depends on where you live and what your current financial situation is.
