The fine print
Langston University's policy doesn't specify whether outside scholarships hit loans, grants, or only the COA ceiling. Get a written aid-office answer before chasing private awards.

The fine print / Three questions to carry forward
Before you count on it.
Does it apply to us? Confirm the entering year, residency and every eligibility condition.
Can we keep it? Check renewal GPA, credits and how long the award lasts.
Can we combine it? Ask how outside scholarships and other school awards change the offer.

Sticker price vs. what students actually pay
- Published tuition & fees (in-state), AY 2022-23
- $6,863
- Published tuition & fees (out-of-state), AY 2022-23
- $14,616
- Average net price paid (all Title-IV aid), AY 2021-22

That works out to roughly a 46% discount below the federal AY 2021-22 average cost of attendance of $21,394 (College Scorecard — a separate, federally reported figure, not the published cost of attendance shown above).
Langston University is a public school; Scorecard's net price figure covers in-state, Title-IV-aid-recipient payers only — there is no comparable federal figure for out-of-state students.

If your student brings another scholarship
Langston's excerpt describes only the federal overaward rule: when a student's total aid exceeds financial need or cost of attendance, the student's federal loan awards are cancelled or reduced and returned to the Department of Education. the published policy does not state whether or how Langston's institutional grants or scholarships are affected by outside awards.
Verified policy language (2026-07-02): When a student receives aid (TFW's, Scholarships, stipends, loans, and or grants) that exceeds financial aid need and or the cost of attendance, and the student is awarded student loans, the student loan awards will be cancelled or reduced to prevent the over-award and loan funds returned to the Department of Education ... Separately, the school's own award-stacking rules: Eligible applicants are automatically considered for listed tuition waiver scholarships, but may only receive one tuition waiver scholarship from the University per academic year.
