Tuition and Scholarships

  • In-State Student Tuition and Scholarships

    Kutztown University automatically reviews students for merit scholarships based on academic performance at the time of acceptance.  Students who qualify for a merit scholarship are guaranteed the award as long as they maintain the academic standards listed in their acceptance letter for eight continuous Fall and Spring semesters.  Questions about merit scholarships should be directed to the Office of Undergraduate Admissions at admissions@kutztown.edu. 

    Donor scholarships are not automatically awarded.  All students, new and returning, must complete the scholarship profile to be reviewed based upon the qualifications set by the donor and academic department by the established deadline here.  Questions about donor scholarships should be directed to the Financial Aid Services Office at financialaid@kutztown.edu. 

     

    Note: University employee-dependent students are not eligible for merit scholarships, as they receive a tuition waiver.

Kutztown made my transfer process incredibly easy. Working with the Admissions staff made me feel like I was truly part of campus. I then had the opportunity to prospective students my Golden Bear pride working as a tour guide and graduate assistant. Kutztown prepared me for success and was able to assist me with accepting my dream job as a medical social worker with St. Luke's University Health Network.
