Thinking about going to Keiser University? Then you should know that tuition will likely cost somewhere around $34,000. Keiser University tuition is considered cheaper than the national average, which is closer to $41,500.

These figures represent the sticker price, which means both fees and the price of tuition itself. Fees are used to fund campus health centers, technology resources, student centers, student gym facilities, and library services, and will differ from one institution to another.

Keep in mind that you will have to consider both the total cost and the net price when you are comparing the costs of different institutions. So to figure out the total cost, you will have to add the sticker price with the cost of transportation, personal expenses, and the costs associated with room and board. When it comes to the total cost expected at Keiser University, it will be around $53,000.

The net price, on the other hand, is represented by the average cost of the university, after the total cost is discounted by scholarship and aid funds. It will usually come at about $45,000 for most students receiving need-based aid.

Scholarships

Scholarships are different from student loans in that they are a funding type you won’t have to pay back. When it comes to need-based scholarships, these will be given based on a student’s financial status.

Merit-based scholarships, as you’d expect, will be awarded to students that have athletic or academic achievements. A parent’s military or employer affiliation, your personal background, unique traits or hobbies, or your community service involvement might also qualify you for a scholarship.

There are students that can cover their living expenses and tuition costs with scholarship money.

Jobs

You can lessen the burden of student loans by working while you are in school. Most schools will offer some type of work-study program in which you might qualify and there are also campus jobs that you can take as a student to earn some money in your free time. While some institutions will require students to apply to the positions themselves if they want a job, others will match students with work-study positions that would work best for their situation.

Before looking for a job outside of the campus, check to see whether your college has an online job board or an in-person job assistance office. You can also talk to career counselors, fellow students, and professors, to find jobs related to your interests and major.
