Hey guys, I'm interested in Rhode Island College but struggling to find clear info on the tuition. How much should I budget for if I plan to attend?
The current tuition for Rhode Island College greatly depends on your residency status. As of the 2024-2025 academic year, the tuition is approximately $9,764 per year for in-state residents and roughly $25,764 per year for out-of-state students.
These amounts cover tuition and fees only, and do not include room and board and other costs such as textbooks and personal expenses. Room and board will vary depending on the housing selection and meal plan you choose, but it typically ranges from $9,000 to $12,000 per year.
Keep in mind that these costs are before any financial aid or scholarships. To have a realistic sense of what you might pay, I recommend using the Net Price Calculator available on the Rhode Island College's website (https://www.ric.edu/about/net-price-calculator). The calculator will give you an estimate of your cost of attendance and potential financial aid based on your family's financial circumstances.
