Cost of Attendance 2026-2027

The 2026-2027 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.

Cost of Attendance for students who are less than half time will not include miscellaneous, personal, or federal loan fees per Federal Student Aid regulations. Loans fees are calculated based on the average loan fee for federal loans.
