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
Like every Uiversity Fisk has its bittersweet traits. Since we are private instituition we are not state funded..So the living conditions could be better.
Jamal from Stone Mountain, GA
I know for a fact that I am paying for the great education that Fisk is providing. The facilities could be better but everything has it's pros and cons.
Shantel from Covington, GA
Yes! We have amazing teachers in fact we have the same professors as Vanderbilt, also you get an experience unlike any other.
Jazmine from Chicago, IL
It gave me my money's worth
Victor from Nigeria
There is the phrase you get what you pay for. Coming to college you pay for an education, not parties. Fisk University is fairly expensive in the mid-30-thousands but obtaining a degree from Fisk is worth every penny.
James from Maple Heights, OH
I have a Presidential Scholarship here (a full ride), and almost EVERYONE I know here has some type of scholarship. Fisk is worth every penny, though.
Yazjae from Chesapeake, VA
