    Since I am a white student who's parents are married and both work, I barely got any scholarship money. I also didn't qualify for work study. Because of that, I don't think that RWU is worth the money. I am getting some good opportunities career wise, but I think RWU is a little over priced for what there is here.

    It is insanely expensive but it is pretty much worth it if you are in marine bio, or architecture cause they are the two best programs here

    This school is overpriced and it seems that the school spends more money impressing parents than the actual students.

    Roger Williams University is a very serious financial investment. Though the university's tuition is below the national average, Roger Williams has many fees that get added to your monthly bill. Room and board prices at Roger Williams University are slightly higher than the national average but the housing options are very limited for Freshman. Books and lab materials are not included in the cost of tuition, which add upwards of $500.00 to your bill monthly.

    Roger Williams, yes, is an expensive school. However, they are generous with financial aid, and I can honestly say it is worth every penny.
