Hey y'all, I'm looking at SMU as one of my college options, but I'm not sure about the costs involved. Can anyone give me a ballpark figure for how much I'd need to pay per year?
The cost of attending Southern Methodist University (SMU) can vary depending on your individual circumstances, but here's a general idea. For the 2022-2023 academic year, the estimated total cost of attendance for full-time undergraduate students is around $76,710. Here's a breakdown of these costs:
1. Tuition: $59,500
2. Housing and Dining: $19,064 (cost may vary depending on the residence hall and meal plan you choose)
3. General Student Fees: $7,538
These figures are just the basic costs and don't include any additional expenses you may incur, such as textbooks, supplies, transportation, and personal expenses. It's important to note that financial aid may be available to help offset these costs. To get a better idea of what you might pay, visit SMU's Net Price Calculator, which factors in your family's financial situation and any potential financial aid.
Keep in mind that these numbers are subject to change, and you should check the SMU website for the most up-to-date information on tuition and fees.
