Hey! I'm a hopeful future performing artist and I'm considering Juilliard. Anybody has any idea about the current cost to attend this school? Any insight into their financial aid would also be cool. Thanks!
Hi there! The estimated full-time annual attendance cost at The Juilliard School, as of 2024-2025 academic year, is around $86,582, which includes both tuition and additional required expenses such as room and board, books, and other fees. Tuition alone is roughly around $54,400.
As for financial aid, Juilliard is committed to assisting students who demonstrate financial need. The school offers a mixture of grants, scholarships, and federal or private loans. The vast majority of Juilliard undergraduates receive some form of financial aid.
When it comes to applying for financial aid, you'll need to complete the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) as well as the CSS Profile, which provides a more comprehensive understanding of your family's financial situation. The FAFSA will determine your eligibility for federal aid while the CSS Profile is typically used by the institution to allocate its own funds.
Scholarships or grants directly from Juilliard are based on both merit and need. Your exceptional talent can certainly aid in reducing the cost, but your financial situation is also taken into account, which could potentially mitigate some anxiety. Additionally, some Juilliard students seek out private scholarships or work-study opportunities to help offset the cost.
It's a great idea to reach out to Juilliard's Financial Aid office if you have specific questions or need further guidance. Best of luck with your applications!
