Costs
In-State
Out-of-State
Since EMU is a public university, there are different costs for in-state students and out-of-state students. The sticker price at EMU is $30,610 for in-state students in MI, and $30,610 for out-of-state students. This sticker price includes costs for tuition, books and supplies, room and board, and other miscellaneous expenses.
It’s also important to note that the cost of tuition can vary from year to year and students can expect the cost of tuition to rise over your four years in college. With that said, your financial aid will also be recalculated each year which will take into account any tuition increases.
