Does Franklin Fit Your World?

Live Where You Want

• You can choose to live where you want, in your own apartment or with friends or family and you will be able to cook food that you like! Franklin is a commuter school, so there are no dormitories or on campus housing or food services.
• Participate in activities that you enjoy! Franklin does not have sports teams or music groups, but the city of Columbus has many activities and entertainment to enjoy.
• With a car or other reliable transportation, you can take courses at either our Main Campus downtown, or the suburban Northwest campus in Dublin and Northeast campus in Westerville.

Tuition You Can Afford

• Franklin keeps the tuition prices the lowest of any private school in the state of Ohio.
• Since Franklin is a commuter school and a place where students come to go to class and use educational resources, you are only paying for the classroom education you receive.
• International students pay the same tuition rate as any other student. There are no in or out of state tuition fees.
• You can apply for academic scholarships and if you are awarded one it will help to defray your tuition costs.
• Those who are fortunate enough to work the few on-campus part-time jobs also receive a reduction in their tuition.

Share the classroom with working adults and find out about the companies they work for

• You will be in class with working professionals with the average age of 32 who will give you insight into their careers and companies they work for.
• You will have the ability to network for potential internship positions and jobs after graduation since you will know many Franklin students in the current workforce.
