OWU Students Say:
“OWU has challenged me academically with its rigorous curriculum and has helped me discover leadership abilities I didn’t know I had.”
Tuition covers up to 5.5 academic units per semester; the use of all facilities—library, wellness center, recreation; and access to college activities.

Our standard room fee is based on double occupancy in a residence hall. Single rooms, when available, will cost more than the standard room charge per semester.

Our average board plan involves a flexible program for hearty, average, and light eaters (our A, B, and C dining plans). All students who live in the residence halls and small living units, including Austin Manor, must participate in the University meal plan.

You may use our Net Price Calculator to estimate your out-of-pocket cost for an Ohio Wesleyan University education. This tool is intended for first-time, incoming, domestic students only and is purely an estimate based on the information that you provide. Actual eligibility for financial aid is subject to your completion of the FAFSA, meeting priority dates, availability of funds, and a student’s academic record.
