Knowledge about the cost-effectiveness of weight loss programs for university students is needed to inform administrator decision-making regarding whether to provide such programming. This study examined the cost-effectiveness of two digitally-delivered weight loss interventions (i.e., TAILORED and TARGETED) designed for university students. The TAILORED intervention included information tailored to the individual, while the TARGETED intervention included only generic weight loss information. At 6 months, the average cost per kilogram of weight loss was $107.82 for TAILORED participants and $179.29 for TARGETED participants. The TAILORED intervention was generally more cost-effective compared with the TARGETED intervention.
