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.

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

I think working for your tuition is a great idea, because I come from a family who struggles a lot financially but we always make it work out.
Natalie from virginia, IL
college of the ozarks work program makes this college five star.
Mike
C of O is definitely the best place to go for the cheapest price. All you have to pay is room and board, books, and health & technology fees.
Tyler originally from Port Allegany, PA but currently from Point Lookout, MO
This is a work study school, so you work 15 hours a week to pay for your tuition. You can also work 40 hours a week during the summer to pay for room and board. In essence, it is free college, and it doesn't get better than that.
Chris from Springfield, MO
College of the Ozarks is definitely worth the time you spend working off tuition. Graduating debt free is one of the best things you can get from this college.
Christina from Kissee Mills, MO
with the work program that the school has you can easily graduate debt free. freshman year is the toughest to get through financially but once you get through it it's all down hill from there.
