Mount Holyoke College is a private liberal arts college, and the cost of attendance can be significant. Do keep in mind that the sticker price can vary significantly from the actual amount you may need to pay after factoring in financial aid, scholarships, and grants. That being said, for the 2022-2023 academic year, the cost of attendance at Mount Holyoke College was broken down as follows:

- Tuition: $54,620

- Room and board: $16,400

- Mandatory fees: $1,200 (includes a student life fee, activity fee, etc.)

- Books and supplies: $1,000 (estimate)

- Personal expenses: $1,000 (estimate)

- Travel: Varies depending on your location

The total estimated cost of attendance, excluding travel costs, was approximately $74,220 for the 2022-2023 academic year. However, as mentioned above, financial aid can significantly reduce the actual out-of-pocket expenses for many students.

In addition to need-based financial aid, Mount Holyoke offers a range of merit-based scholarships, grants, and work-study opportunities to help students cover the costs. Also, Mount Holyoke meets 100% of the demonstrated financial need for enrolled undergraduate students.

To get a better estimation of your net cost, I recommend using Mount Holyoke's Net Price Calculator on their website. This tool will help you understand the financial aid you might qualify for, based on your specific financial situation. You can also reach out to the financial aid office directly with questions about your particular circumstances.
