Tuition and Fees

The cost for tuition and fees at Rhodes is among the lowest of the national liberal arts colleges (U.S. News & World Report). Still, we understand that financing a college education is a big task and we are here to help. We carefully consider every applicant's circumstances and do our best to help make it possible for every admitted student to attend the college.
