Tuition and Fees

See what affordable looks like with JWU

Paying for a quality education should be the least of your worries, which is why we’re constantly working to provide competitively priced college tuition. Take a look at our university tuition breakdown below to get a better idea of the costs associated with attending the Johnson & Wales University College of Online Education.

Your balance may be a lot less than you think, once you factor in eligible grants and financial aid.

You can use our Net Price Calculator to estimate and plan for educational costs at the College of Online Education.  Note the academic year associated with the calculator and that the calculation assumes three-quarter time status, as well as takes into consideration possible military benefits (service members should contact their branch of service to determine full eligibility information). Use is not intended for current/enrolled, international, or Continuing Education students.
