Rose-Hulman is extremely expensive. The financial aid department is extremely understanding though, and will work with you to help you as much as they can. Also, the almost 100% guarantee of employment after graduation makes the price-tag more than worth it.

Do not get me wrong, being a private school, Rose-Hulman gets a bit expensive at times. But in the end, it will all pay off tremendously. I am just a freshman, and I can already tell that it will be the best investment of my life. Also, there really is no need to stress too much over cost of attendance. The school will do everything in its power to make sure that the cost of attendance is affordable for each and every student.

There are so many opportunities here and you'll be surprised at the amount of your scholarship (and the lack thereof at Purdue!) Purdue broke up their scholarship allocation based on majors. That means you have to be in the top 13% of applicants (key word applicants) at Purdue Engineering. Rose is not the case.

The total cost of schooling may be one of the highest in the United States, but I would say it is worth every penny. Personally, I am paying almost half tuition with the RHIT scholarship and grant I received. I am proud to say that I am doing it all on my own and I have enough confidence in my education at Rose-Hulman that I know it will pay for itself.

Rose-Hulman has a great financial aid department that will work with everyone so that it won't be a financial burden to attend.
