Hi, I'm considering St. Lawrence University for my undergrad but I'm having trouble finding details about tuition and other costs. Could someone please tell me how much I can expect to pay each year if I attend St. Lawrence University?
St. Lawrence University is a private institution and for the 2024-2025 academic year, the base tuition is approximately $65,450. This figure does not include other costs like room and board, books, personal expenses, or travel, which can add up. A general estimate for a residence hall with a meal plan can be around $17,000, and additional expenses such as books, health insurance, and personal expenses could add around $3,000 to $5,000 to your budget.
This totals to about $85,450 to $87,450, although the exact total you'd pay varies depending on your personal expenses and the specific housing option you choose. This is the total cost before any financial aid, scholarships, or other forms of aid are taken into account.
Remember that financial aid can significantly reduce these costs, especially when need-based aid, merit scholarships, or a combination of both come into play. I recommend using the net price calculator on St. Lawrence’s website to get a more personalized estimate of what you might expect to pay after taking financial aid into account. This tool considers factors like your family's income, your grades, and any potential merit aid you might receive. It's an effective way to gauge what the likely financial scope will look like with respect to your personal situation.
