Affordable Success
Students in classFort Hays State University has long been the best buy in higher education for the entire state of Kansas, providing high quality instruction while keeping tuition and fees low. FHSU again will have the lowest tuition of any of the Regents universities, making it an even better choice. While smaller private colleges sometimes offer what looks like an attractive financial aid package, their tuition and fees may be so high that you will still be paying for your education long after you graduate. Compare the bottom line. What will come out of your pocket for tuition and fees? FHSU invests more state dollars per undergraduate student than any other Regents school and offers the best value for a quality education.

Low cost alone does not guarantee a good buy. Before spending your money, find out what you'll be getting. FHSU delivers. We survey our graduates six months after Commencement each year. Our students continue to win national academic titles, beating such schools as KU, K-State,Texas Tech, Stanford,Northwestern and MIT. How do we do it? With FHSU's student-to-faculty ratio of 17 to 1, you get access to exceptional faculty for a quality education and professional opportunities other schools can't begin to match.
