Tuition and Fees

Don’t let the ‘sticker price’ get you! Nearly 100% of EMU students receive financial aid, and many EMU parents say that after financial aid, the costs of a private education at EMU are comparable to the costs of public schools.

  • An average financial aid package is $17,350 for first-year students
  • EMU students graduate with less debt than the national average

Students and their parents say the value of an EMU education is priceless. A national study tracking graduation rates ranked EMU among the top schools in the region. Give our admissions counselors and financial aid advisors a call. We can dispel the many myths about the affordability of private college.
