Penn State Tuition
Penn State tuition varies depending on the campus. Also, as you progress into your third and fourth years of study, some academic programs—primarily nursing, engineering, and the sciences—assess a higher tuition rate, known as tuition differential.
Schreyer Honors College Fees
The Schreyer Honors College applies a $25 per semester Scholar fee to support the facilities and programs sponsored by the college.
This fee gives you access to Atherton and Simmons, regardless of where you choose to live, which includes use of the study lounges, meeting spaces, printing stations, music practice rooms, and game rooms.
The fee also supports Scholar-specific programming throughout the year. Schreyer Scholars at University Park will see this charge in their student account.
Financial Aid
As a Schreyer Scholar, you may receive financial aid from the Honors College, your academic college, or Penn State's Office of Student Aid. If you have questions about available aid, contact Schreyer's Financial Aid Specialist or schedule an appointment to discuss your specific needs.
Student aid packages are final. We don't negotiate student aid packages to match grant or scholarship offers from other colleges or universities. We are happy to discuss other funding options that may work for your family.
