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.

Additional Costs
Room and Board The weighted average for room and board and other expenses is generated as follows:
  • (amount for on-campus room, board and other expenses * # of students living on-campus.
  • + amount for off-campus (with family) room, board and other expenses * # of students living off-campus with family
  • + amount for off-campus (not with family) room, board and other expenses * # of students living off-campus not with family)
divided by the total # of students. Students whose living arrangements are unknown are excluded from the calculation. For some institutions the # of students by living arrangement will be known, but dollar amounts will not be known. In this case the # of students with no corresponding dollar amount will be excluded from the denominator.

What Students Are Saying

Georgetown College is an expensive school, but they also give you more financial aid than a public school would. And it is definitely worth it! The quality of education you are getting is priceless. The dorm rooms and food are comparable to any other school; not any better or worse. The dorms are old, but it's something you have to live with.
Caitlin from Florence, KY
While at times it seems expensive, the experience is totally worth it.
Rebecca G. from Elizabethtown, KY
Expensive-- and tuition seems to get higher. . If possible I would definitely recommend someone who doesn't think they can afford it to apply anyways. the financial aid office is always willing to help you get your tuition in order.
Rebecca from Sadieville, KY
As a private college, Georgetown requires a bit more from its students in the form of tuition. And like at any college, the students are going to spend a good deal of their time complaining about the price. However, the education you receive is excellent and the friends and connections you make last a lifetime.
Amberlee from Lexington, KY
A college education is priceless
Austin from Prospect, KY
I am waiting to add them to my fafsa.
Chikara from Chicago, IL
Georgetown can be seen pricey. However, it is a wonderful college where you have small class sizes. Teachers who care and generally are interested in your well being!
Traci from Georgetown, KY
Georgetown, being a private school, is pretty expensive. But unlike some of the cheaper, bigger schools, most fees are nonexistent; everything is pretty much covered in the big payment. The professors, class sizes, food, and community are well worth the price. Also, the college works its hardest to ensure financial aid to those who need it, so that shouldn't necessarily be a deciding factor.
