I'm considering applying to Franklin and Marshall this coming year, but am having some trouble getting a gauge on the tuition. Does anybody here have any information about it? Thanks in advance!
Absolutely! Franklin and Marshall is a private college, so its tuition tends to be on the higher side. For the 2023-2024 academic year, the tuition, including room and board, was approximately $87,000. However, this was the sticker price and a significant number of students receive financial aid which reduces this cost.
It's also important to understand that Franklin and Marshall is a need-based financial aid college and they use the FAFSA and CSS Profile to determine your financial aid package. You might want to utilize their Net Price Calculator to get a more accurate estimation of what you may be expected to pay based on your family's financial situation.
Remember, you should never let the sticker price discourage you from applying to a school. Many schools, including Franklin and Marshall, are committed to making their education affordable to students who are admitted.
