Tuition and Fees
OHIO Means Guaranteed Value
The OHIO Guarantee takes the guesswork out of budgeting for college and provides a fixed rate table for tuition and most fees for four years (or 12 consecutive semesters). During the 2024-2025 year, new undergraduate students who are Ohio residents and enroll full-time through one of OHIO’s regional campuses will pay $3,109 per semester.**
