Tuition, Cost & Aid

Affordability and Cost

Average Net Price Average net price for full-time, first-time degree/certificate-seeking undergraduates paying the in-state or in-district tuition rate who were awarded grant or scholarship aid from federal, state or local governments, or the institution. Other sources of grant aid are excluded. Aid awarded anytime during the full aid year is included.

Average net price is generated by subtracting the average amount of federal, state or local government, or institutional grant and scholarship aid from the total cost of attendance. Total cost of attendance is the sum of published tuition and required fees (lower of in-district or in-state), books and supplies and the weighted average room and board and other expenses.

In-State Tuition In-state tuition is the tuition charged by institutions to those students who meet the state's or institution's residency requirements.

Additional Costs
Room and Board The weighted average for room and board and other expenses is generated as follows:
  • (amount for on-campus room, board and other expenses * # of students living on-campus.
  • + amount for off-campus (with family) room, board and other expenses * # of students living off-campus with family
  • + amount for off-campus (not with family) room, board and other expenses * # of students living off-campus not with family)
divided by the total # of students. Students whose living arrangements are unknown are excluded from the calculation. For some institutions the # of students by living arrangement will be known, but dollar amounts will not be known. In this case the # of students with no corresponding dollar amount will be excluded from the denominator.

What Students Are Saying

Being that Pfeiffer is a private school, tuition is higher; however, financial aid here is really great especially if you play sports or are affiliated with the Methodist church. I am neither an athlete or a member of the Methodist church but still received a great financial aid award. It really helps to keep your grades at a least a 3.0 or above and participate around the campus.
Amnazo from Charlotte, NC
the campus may not look amazing, and its out in the middle of no where but, you will learn to love it. the people are amazing and extremely helpful.
brandon from charlotte, nc
Yes, Pfeiffer is a private school so tuition is a little more, but the financial aid here is awesome. If you play a sport here or are affiliated with the Methodist church you will probably receive a good scholarship to attend. You do not need to be part of either of these those. If you have done community service or just had a good GPA in high school they will find you some money to help you as well. Pfeiffer University will help you in any way to find you money so you can attend. They are very helpful.

Christina from Locust Grove, VA
Although many students get scholarships here, for those who don't, it is still well worth the money. You create connections and opportunities that extend well beyond the four years you spend in Misenheimer.
