Tuition and Fees
We know cost is a huge consideration during your college search. Don’t let the ‘sticker price’ fool you! You’ll be surprised how affordable an EMU education really is.
- Nearly 100% of undergrads receive financial aid.
- An average assistance package is around $19,000.
- Close to $10 million in aid was awarded by EMU in 2012.
Parents of current EMUers say the cost of an EMU education – which is priceless – is comparable in the end to that at large public colleges.
