This is Roger Williams University

Our standard rate tuition for 2023-24 is $42,336 (this does not include housing and fees). However, the average tuition after RWU aid is $20,836. All applicants are automatically considered for merit scholarships which typically range from $17,000 to $23,000 per year (we guarantee that aid for all four undergraduate years). Select students may qualify for our Intercultural Leadership Ambassador Scholarship (ILA), which is an award that covers 95% of tuition annually. 

Bottom line, don't count us out. 

You are SO much more than just a test score. That's why we do a holistic review of every individual application. We are test-optional, so yes, this means it's OK not to submit scores. The average GPA of admitted students is 3.5/4.0 (about a B+/A-), and the middle 50% of admits had GPA’s ranging between 3.2 and 3.9. At RWU, we look at each and every piece of information, accomplishment, and involvement- and always in the context of your personal, school, and local environment.

We want to get to know you and for you to get to know us! We offer a variety of visit experiences. Join us to see more about our waterfront campus and hear from staff, faculty and RWU students about their experiences. 

Want to visit campus but aren’t able to physically join us? Join us virtually! We're offering virtual campus tours narrated by a current RWU student who can answer questions live!
