Tools and Resources for Estimating Costs
ANNUAL ADJUSTMENTS AND CHANGES IN TUITION AND FEES
Please note that the figures provided below for the 2024-2025 academic year are estimates and not definitive costs. They are subject to potential variations. Tuition and fees undergo annual adjustments and are finalized by the Rutgers Board of Governors in July of each fiscal year.
Cost Calculator: Interactive & Insightful Tool
The Cost Calculator is an interactive online tool that empowers you to estimate your cost of attendance. By inputting key factors such as your residency status, living arrangements, number of credits, and applicable funding, you can conduct what-if analyses to explore different scenarios. This tool provides real-time calculations and valuable insights, allowing you to plan and budget with greater precision.
Cost Tables: Transparency & Flexibility for Self-Guided Analysis
In addition to the Cost Calculator, we offer comprehensive cost tables that provide transparency and flexibility for self-guided analysis. These tables provide a breakdown of tuition and fees based on various factors such as residency status, credit load, and other considerations. By referring to these tables, you can perform your own calculations and gain a deeper understanding of the potential costs associated with your educational journey.
