Tuition, Cost & Aid
Affordability and Cost
Average Net Price Average net price for full-time, first-time degree/certificate-seeking undergraduates paying the in-state or in-district tuition rate who were awarded grant or scholarship aid from federal, state or local governments, or the institution. Other sources of grant aid are excluded. Aid awarded anytime during the full aid year is included.
Average net price is generated by subtracting the average amount of federal, state or local government, or institutional grant and scholarship aid from the total cost of attendance. Total cost of attendance is the sum of published tuition and required fees (lower of in-district or in-state), books and supplies and the weighted average room and board and other expenses.

What Students Are Saying
Albright is extremely expensive to attend. There are some areas where it shows that you are getting what you paid for like the buffet style caf. and extra bonus bucks you get for your meal plan. It also shows in the gym and the renovations currently take place like in the science building. In other areas there is definitely room for improvement, like a face lit for the dorms and bathrooms, but Albright is working really hard to improve these areas and there is a student club that allows people to voice their opinion about the school. There are also a ton of student jobs that can help you pay for tuition like at the coffee place, the caf. the smaller restaurants, public safety and many other areas. Although it is an expensive school they give out really nice scholarships and the homeless and education you receive definitely make up for the losses.

One really gets what their paying for at Albright.
Clayton from Lock Haven, PA
Albright is on the expensive side, just like any other private school. But there are several opportunities for scholarships which can cut the costs. Even though the cost is rather pricey, it is worth every penny I have put down on my education.
