At McMurry, students develop confidence and communication skills. They are equipped to exceed expectations and go on to make their mark through scholarship, leadership, and service.
Affordable education
McMurry is dedicated to making a strong education possible by awarding federal, state, and institutional aid. This year, over $10 million of financial aid was distributed to over 82% of students. While McMurry is a private university, financial aid packages make a McMurry education a great value that is well within reach and tailored to fit your individual needs.
Comprehensive awards can vary greatly, ranging from $12,000 to well over $27,000 per year based on individual qualifications and demonstrated financial need. This year, students received total aid packages (including scholarships, loans, and grants) averaging over $26,000 per year.

You will be challenged at McMurry, but you will be supported too. Our professors care about each student’s success, and they will go the extra mile to help you. It’s these close mentoring relationships that empower our students to step out, take risks, and achieve at a level they may have never thought possible.
