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.

The tuition and prices are a little more expensive than I had hoped but, I don't regret spending the money it is worth it!
Kristine from Tecumseh, KS
The tution cost is relatively low compared to the level of teaching you will recieve. Emporia State university is among the top best teaching schools in the nation. Allowing for more bang for your buck. Taking advantage of the low prices to attend will land you in great classes allowing you to get everything you need to excel.
dakota from Gilmer, TX
With Flat rate tuition students can take as many classes as they want for one flat rate. It makes it nice if you take a lot of credit hours.
Tiffani from Hoyt, KS
It is worth every penny. For a state university, it is relatively cheap also.
Nicole from El Dorado, KS
ESU gave me enough scholarships that I haven't had to pay for college yet. There's always free events and free stuff to do, te education is solid, and it's a great place to be. It's worth every penny, and is one of the cheapest schools in the Midwest. Considering they have such awesome business, education, nursing, theatre, and other programs, it's a great value.
