A Saint Joseph’s University education is truly an investment in the student’s future. One could even look at it in purely financial terms: On average, those with bachelor’s degrees earn double what those with just a high school diploma earn. According to the U.S. Department of Education, this translates to roughly $2.1 million over a lifetime.
Regardless of family income, we encourage you to apply for admission and financial aid. A composite financial aid award package of grants, merit scholarships, part-time work study, and low-interest loans can add up to make the cost of education more affordable. Like other major investments, the educational experience is made for the long term and appreciates in value.
