Four-Year Approach to Tuition
At the University of Dayton, we want students to have a successful college experience and peace of mind regarding the cost of their degree. That's why we created a four-year approach to tuition with complete transparency.
RaiseMe
We've partnered with RaiseMe to encourage students to start building skills for college success beginning in the 9th grade. By recording their achievements, students can also begin earning our merit scholarships, which they can track on their RaiseMe profile.
And as a counselor, you can create an educator account to help introduce your students to RaiseMe and see their activity.
On-Campus Visits and Events
We believe the best way to determine if the University of Dayton is the right fit for your students is to have them visit. A variety of campus visit options are offered to meet student schedules, and registering through our online calendar makes it easy.
Off-Campus and virtual Events
Your students are invited to experience UD during our off-campus and virtual admission events. A variety of opportunities are offered throughout the year to help your students learn more about the Flyer community.
Counselor Events
Guiding students makes your time extremely valuable. Our High School Counselor Visitation Program takes place in April each year and is coordinated with Miami University. Our program provides you the opportunity to see our beautiful campus, learn about our offerings and engage with members of our community.
