Non-resident Tuition and Fees

One of the major concerns for students and parents in choosing a college is cost. Pittsburg State University has a reputation for offering quality education at an affordable cost. 

By combining a quality education with an affordable price, Pittsburg State offers an exceptional value among colleges and universities in the region and beyond.

When compared to other colleges in the region - public and private - we stand out as a very affordable choice, with tuition costs among the lowest you'll find.

Add extra credits at no extra cost

Unlike many other schools, at Pitt State you pay a flat tuition amount for 10 credit hours or more, which lets you add extra credit hours to your course load without incurring any additional per-credit-hour cost. And at Pitt State, student fees - such as your student ID card, event tickets, student health care access, and parking - are included in tuition costs.
