GW's Fixed Tuition Plan
We are committed to attracting academically qualified students who want to be at GW. Through the University’s innovative fixed-rate tuition plan, students no longer need to be concerned about annual tuition increases. The tuition you pay as an entering student remains fixed for your undergraduate program as long as you maintain continuous full-time enrollment and are registered for a minimum of 12 semester hours of study each fall and spring term. Students also get the flexibility of a tuition fixed for up to ten semesters of study should a fifth year be required to achieve their academic goals. There are no additional fees except for a minimal Student Association fee.
In an era of annual double-digit tuition increases, GW’s fixed tuition plan is unique. Up front it allows families to know the cost of a GW education, not just for the first year, but through the conclusion of a degree program. In comparing costs of education and offers of financial assistance, GW’s fixed-tuition plan gives our families a long-term, guaranteed outlook, compared to most other schools that provide only a one year financial glimpse. We recognize that making the financial sacrifice for a quality private education at a select university is not easy, so we are doing our best to make tuition management as predictable as possible.
