I'm a bit stressed out trying to plan financially for college. William and Mary is on my list but I'm from out-of-state. I've heard that out-of-state fees can be significantly higher. Does anyone know what the out-of-state tuition for William and Mary would be?
Absolutely, getting a grasp on tuition costs is a crucial part of the college planning process. For the College of William and Mary, out-of-state students can expect a significantly higher cost compared to their in-state counterparts. As of the 2024-2025 academic year, the estimated total cost of attendance for out-of-state students is around $67,220. This estimate includes tuition, fees, room, and board.
However, it's important to remember this is just an estimate and actual costs can vary based on factors such as housing choices, meal plans, and personal expenses. Additionally, many students don't end up paying the full "sticker price" because they qualify for financial aid or scholarships.
Using the net price calculator on William and Mary's website (https://www.wm.edu/admission/financialaid/net-price-calculator/) can give a more personalized estimate of what you might pay after accounting for grants and scholarships. Just keep in mind that calculators like these aren't exact, but they can still be a valuable tool in the planning process. Hope this helps with your planning!
