I've been looking into applying to Cornell, but I want to know about the financial side of things. Can anyone give me an estimate of Cornell's tuition and fees per year?
Sure! For the 2024-2025 academic year, Cornell University's estimated cost of attendance is as follows:
- Tuition: $68,380
- Room and board: $19,428
- Mandatory Fees: $934
These numbers add up to a total of approximately $88,742 per year. Keep in mind that this is the sticker price, and many students receive financial aid packages that significantly reduce their out-of-pocket expenses. Cornell offers need-based financial aid and is committed to meeting 100% of a student's demonstrated financial need.
To get a better understanding of what your financial aid package could look like at Cornell, I recommend using Cornell's Net Price Calculator, which can be found on their Financial Aid website. This tool will ask for information about your family's financial situation and give you an estimate of what you might be expected to pay.
Remember that the cost of attendance can vary depending on factors like housing arrangement, meal plan, and personal expenses, but the numbers provided above should give you a good starting point for understanding the cost of attending Cornell.
