Hi there, I'm interested in applying to Swarthmore College, but I'm having trouble finding a clear breakdown of the costs. Can someone help me out with the overall expenses, including tuition, room and board, and any other fees? Thanks!
Hello! Sure, I can help with that. Keep in mind that the costs may vary slightly each year, but for 2024-2025 academic year, the estimated costs for Swarthmore College are as follows:
1. Tuition: $65,058
2. Room & Board: $20,308 (Standard room and meal plan)
3. Fees: $436 (includes student activity fee and wellness fee)
4. Books and Supplies: Estimated around $1,100
5. Personal Expenses: Estimated around $1,640
The total estimated cost before financial aid for the 2024-2025 academic year is around $88,542.
Remember, Swarthmore College offers need-based financial aid to those who qualify, so your net cost could be different from these figures. To find out what you might expect to pay, you can use Swarthmore's Net Price Calculator on their website to get an estimate of the financial aid package you could receive.
Good luck with your application, and feel free to ask if you have any other questions!
