Help figuring out Michigan State tuition?

I'm pretty interested in applying to Michigan State, but I haven't been able to find concise info on their tuition. Can anyone point me in the right direction or give a rough estimate of the cost? Thanks in advance!

Sure, I'd be happy to help break it down! Know that the definitive source would be the university's official website. But here's a general rundown based on the most recent data.

For the 2024-2025 academic year, here are the estimated costs for Michigan State undergraduates:

1. Tuition:

- In-state students: About $16,500 per year

- Out-of-state students: About $34,000 per year

2. Room and Board:

- Both in-state and out-of-state students: About $12,600 per year. This can vary based on your housing choice and meal plan.

3. Books and Supplies:

- Both in-state and out-of-state students: About $1,380 per year. However, this can vary significantly from student to student and major to major.

Adding it all up, an in-state student can expect to pay roughly $30,480 per year, whereas for out-of-state students, the estimated total will amount to around $48,000 per year (excluding personal and transportation expenses).

Also remember to factor in financial aid. Most students do not pay the "sticker price" and may be eligible for a variety of aid options. I'd highly recommend connecting with Michigan State's financial aid office or using their net price calculator to get a more personalized idea of what you may pay after financial aid is taken into account.

Lastly, please note that these numbers are subject to change with each academic year, and it's always a good idea to verify the numbers directly with the university as they update tuition and fees.
