Wichita State University is the perfect school for students looking to
combine a traditional college atmosphere with the freedom of a big city.

Students applying to WSU must submit a non-refundable $30 application fee
when submitting their application for admissions. Additionally, the cost
of tuition varies depending on whether or not you are a Kansas resident.

Wichita State provides, on average, more than $100 million in grants,
scholarships and student loans each year. WSU also offers three of the
state’s largest individual undergraduate scholarships: the Harry Gore
Memorial Scholarships and the Clay Barton Scholarship.

WSU offers academics through several colleges, including the College of
Education, College of Engineering, College of Fine Arts, College of
Health Professions, Fairmount College of Liberal Arts and Sciences,
Pre-Professional College, and the W. Frank Barton School of Business.

With a focus on experience-based learning, Wichita State focuses on real
world learning, not just academic testing. This school believes that by
preparing students for future jobs, they are also expanding their
experience, thus making them more marketable to prospective employers.

The Rhatigan Student Center is the hub of student life at WSU. Located in
the center of campus, the Rhatigan Center houses places to eat, study,
hang out with friends, shop, relax or get a haircut. Students looking to
get involved in campus organizations will find a diverse assortment of
leadership, Greek, volunteer and student organizations to choose from.
