2024 EWU Scholarships

EWU net price is at $13,145.00 per year and will likely continue climbing like all colleges around the U.S. There are various ways to combat the steep rises in college tuition, and scholarships can be a key ingredient in reducing the overall cost of Eastern Washington University. EWU awards an average of $20,818.00 to each student, which can help alleviate some of the financial burden.
