Hi all, I'm considering applying to Fairfield University, but I'm curious about the tuition and fees for undergrads. Can anyone give me an idea of what to expect in terms of cost? Thanks!
Sure, I'd be happy to provide some information on Fairfield University's undergraduate tuition and fees. As of the 2024-2025 academic year, the tuition for full-time undergraduate students at Fairfield University is approximately $57,450. Additional mandatory fees, which generally cover various student services and activities, amount to roughly $1,000.
Keep in mind that these numbers don't include the cost of living expenses, such as room and board, which could range from $16,000-$20,000 per year, depending on your housing and meal plan choices. Also, you'll need to consider the cost of textbooks, personal expenses, and transportation.
However, don't let these numbers discourage you, as many students qualify for financial aid, scholarships, or grants, which can significantly reduce the cost of attendance. Fairfield University offers a variety of merit-based scholarships, as well as need-based financial assistance. To get an estimate of your potential financial aid package, you can use Fairfield University's Net Price Calculator on their website.
If you decide to apply to Fairfield, make sure to submit your FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) as soon as possible to maximize your chances of receiving financial aid. Good luck, and let me know if you have any other questions!
