• 2025-2026 In-State Student Tuition and Scholarships

  Kutztown University automatically reviews students for merit scholarships based on academic performance at the time of acceptance.  Students who qualify for a merit scholarship are guaranteed the award as long as they maintain the academic standards listed in their acceptance letter for eight continuous Fall and Spring semesters.  Questions about merit scholarships should be directed to the Office of Undergraduate Admissions at admissions@kutztown.edu. 

  Donor scholarships are not automatically awarded.  All students, new and returning, must complete the scholarship profile to be reviewed based upon the qualifications set by the donor and academic department by the established deadline here.  Questions about donor scholarships should be directed to the Financial Aid Services Office at financialaid@kutztown.edu. 

   

  Note: University employee-dependent students are not eligible for merit scholarships, as they receive a tuition waiver.

The support from new friends and staff at Kutztown helped to ease my anxiety of transferring and living on campus. I’ve gotten involved and met so many different people from different backgrounds at KU.
