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.

Average Rating
No matter where you go, college will forever be expensive. In state tuition for me as a resident, average $17,000. But what price are you willing to pay for a better education? Personally, I will pay the price so I no longer work at dead end jobs.

Its a little pricey for out of state tuition, but its always higher when you are coming from out of state.

No matter what, college is expensive.
Monica from Homer, AK
There are so many scholarships available for this school, especially if you're a UA scholar. I ended up with free housing and even got upgraded to a townhouse when the dorms were filled.
Kaycie from Anchorage, AK
for what you pay for classes is better than anything i have seen. the classes are a fordable. For what we do pay as students to attend these classes, it is worth it. you really do get you bang for your buck sure classes are going to be expensive no matter where you go. Over all UAS is the choice to go. the classes are worth it. and like i said you do really get your bang for the buck you spend to attend.
Shilo from North Pole, AK
Is the same for any UA college and I think could be cheaper since UAA has more fees it seems
Makayla from Palmer, AK
It has a private school feel at a public school price. Cafeteria is a bit pricey for what you get, but all in all this campus is awesome.
