The cost of going to college is an important consideration when making decisions about your academic and professional career. The costs listed represent the expenses associated with each of our four academic programs. However, tuition does vary from year to year, and the university has different cost structures depending on a student's status as an Alaska resident, as a nonresident, or as a nonresident under the Western Undergraduate Exchange program.

The university maintains a complete and up-to-date list of UAA tuition and fees. Some classes carry with them extra costs, such as lab fees, that are not represented at the main tuition page.
