Cost of Attendance 2025-2026


The 2025-2026 cost of attendance represents both direct costs and indirect costs. Direct costs are those billed by William Jewell College to your account, such as tuition, mandatory fees, housing and food (living expenses). Indirect costs are those not billed by William Jewell College and could be individual expenses like clothing, personal hygiene products and transportation from home to campus. The cost of attendance will always exceed the direct cost of attending Jewell and does not reflect your financial aid.
