What is the cost of attending Marist?

I'm really drawn to Marist's programs and campus culture, but before I get too invested, I need to consider cost. Can someone provide me with a breakdown of Marist's cost of attendance including tuition, room, board, and other fees? Thanks in advance.

Absolutely, I can provide some insight into the costs associated with attending Marist College.

- Fees: The comprehensive student fee, which covers technology, student activities, library resources, and more, is around $830 annually.

- Books and Supplies: While this varies greatly depending on your program of study, a general estimate is around $2,425 annually.

Remember, this is the sticker price and doesn't take into account any financial aid you might receive. After scholarships, grants, and other forms of aid, the actual amount you'll end up paying could be significantly lower. Marist College offers a variety of scholarships and grants that can significantly offset these costs. It's also important to fill out the FAFSA to be eligible for federal aid.

As always, it's good to check with Marist's Financial Aid Office for the most up-to-date and personalized information. They can give you a clearer idea of the aid you might qualify for, and ultimately, what your own cost of attendance might look like.
