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

Good education for a good price.
Erin from Beckley, WV
Marshall has a great campus and friendly staff. It worth every penny to attend such a feet college. The professor actually care about learning and do not assign busy work. The dining areas and dorms are cleaned daily, and kept in great condition.
Margaret from Danville, WV
Cost was a huge deal for me. However, Marshall offers a great education for a great price.
Emily from Charleston, WV
Coming from IL the colleges and universities are quites expensive even for an in-stater like me. Marshall on the other hand even without Financial aid is cheaper. With a annual tuition that is less than 13 thousand.
Donyea from Springfield, IL
You really do get more bang for your buck. Tuition is reasonable and with financial aid you may come out of pocket little to nothing( if anything at all). Marshall offer many types of scholarships so students can refrain from taking out loans
Erika from Wheeling, WV
marshall is one of the most affordable universities in the state and offers more than enough resources and attention to your academic and social needs.
NL from Bluefield, WV
as a student at marshall, they definitely provide you with countless options of all varieties that allow you spend to your heart's content or to help make your penny stretch. sporting events are included in your tuition, so games are free for students. meal plans with flex points allow you to enjoy extra extra food options outside of the cafeteria without spending hard earned cash. the local hot spot, fat patty's also helps with half price appetizers at certain times. many places around campus also give student discounts.
