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
So far I do think this place is worth my money.
Benjamin from Kansas City, MO
I assume it's cheaper here at MS&T than at Mizzou, but a good 15 credit hours' tuition will cost a pretty penny (somewhere around $5000 depending on the year). There are several exceptions, but generally for the first two years students are required to live in university housing (tack on another $10,000 a semester). Money aside, a student here not only gets the five star education he/she pays for, but an incredible array of student resources (24/7 computer access, 24 hour library, work/study program) as well as helpful professors and academic advisors. You get what you pay for.
Benjamin from Rolla, MO
You will definitely get the best bang for your buck if you are coming to this school for an engineering major. The school has career fairs every semester and it helps people get summer jobs while in school to help pay for college.
Nicholas from Republic, MO
This school works very hard to prepare the students for the work world. The students leave Missouri S&T with a good technical background.
D from Platte City, MO
With the small class sizes and the way the professors care for your grade, I would definately say this school is worth the money. As long as your dedicated to learning all of the resources you could possibly need are there.
Robert from Imperial, MO
I came to college to get an education and I am certainly getting that here. For the cost, MS&T is a very great school choice. There are similar schools that I looked at that cost upwards of $45,000 every year! MS&T is an exceptional school for the cost.
Nicholas from Webb City, MO
Your money is definitely well-spent at MS&T. You get intense training in your career field and you really know what you're doing by the time you get out there. Employers flock to this school because of that fact and the career fairs we have draw over 300 major employers looking to hire. Also, just the benefits the MS&T name can get you after college are worth the money.
Josh from Fair Play, MO
I am from out of state and I feel I am getting a great education for the price!
