Maryville College Top Questions

By far the worst thing about my school is the high tuition costs of the school. It is a private college so tuition is $37,000 per year, and it has increased by $3,000 each year. I am currently having to pay for my complete tuition by myself so the high tuition costs take a heavy toll on me, both physically and emotionally. If it was not for the high tuition compared to the nearby , and far more affordable, University of Tennessee Knoxville or East Tennessee State University, Maryville College would have no major flaws in my eyes.
