Tuition and Fees

Tuition, fees, room, and board costs for the 2026-27 school year total $53,290 (assuming a residential student who lives in a traditional residence hall with an unlimited meal plan).

View the comprehensive list of fees and other charges, including laundry service, meal plans, and enrollment deposit. Other special fees are listed in the undergraduate catalog. Students living in traditional-style residence halls must have the unlimited meal plan (default plan) unless approved for a dietary accommodation based on a documented disability (serious food allergies, digestive medical conditions, physical disabilities, etc). Single rooms are generally unavailable unless a student is approved for housing accommodation based on a documented disability.
