Hey guys, looking into Notre Dame and trying to figure out what the cost would be to attend. Anyone have any specifics about this? Especially if there's a difference between in-state and out-of-state tuition. Thanks in advance!
Notre Dame is a private university, which means that tuition is the same for all students, regardless of whether they are in-state or out-of-state. For the 2024-2025 academic year, tuition at the University of Notre Dame was about $65,025. Keep in mind that there will be additional costs for room and board, books and supplies, and other personal expenses, which can add up to around $18,000-$24,000 per year, bringing the total cost of attendance to approximately $86,125 per year.
However, it's important to understand that this is just the sticker price, which few students actually pay in full. Most families will pay less once financial aid, grants, and scholarships are taken into consideration. Notre Dame offers need-based financial aid and a variety of scholarships, so I encourage you to check out these opportunities.
One other thing to note is that Notre Dame meets 100% of demonstrated financial need and it prides itself on admitting students based on their merits and not their ability to pay. So, depending on your financial situation, even though the sticker price may seem high, the actual amount you may pay can be much lower. You might want to try using Notre Dame's Net Price Calculator to get a personalized estimate of what you might be expected to contribute based on your family's financial circumstances.
