Undergraduate
Student Budget
The estimated cost of attendance for 2016-17 is $63,975 and includes:
Tuition: $45,540
Room charge: $8,400
Board rate: $6,435
Estimated miscellaneous expenses: $3,600
The room charge and board rate are standard for University dormitories and meal plans. Estimated miscellaneous expenses include the residential college fee, activities fees, class dues and a one-time transcript fee. These items, totaling an estimated $1015 of the $3,600 estimated books and personal expenses, are billed by the University along with tuition, room and board. Financial aid credits are deducted from the University bill of $61,390 for those who qualify, leaving the remainder due as a family payment on either a semester or monthly basis.
This estimate does not include the cost of travel, which may range between $100 and $2,500. Students who are not covered by a family health insurance policy must purchase Student Health Plan coverage for $1,900. University charges are likely to increase modestly for 2017-18.
Postgraduate
The standard tuition rate for an academic year is the same for all regularly enrolled graduate students during their regular enrollment period. The total rate includes the required Student Health Plan (SHP) fee. The University will not permit students to waive out of the SHP fee.
Ph.D. students who are in absentia and/or in DCE status pay a marginal-cost tuition rate that includes the mandatory SHP fee.
Princeton’s Board of Trustees approves tuition rates annually. For the 2015-2016 academic year, our tuition and fees are detailed below:
Tuition and Fees: 2015 - 2016

For Ph.D. candidates, tuition and fees during a student’s regular period of enrollment are provided in full from a student’s graduate student financial support, in the form of tuition support from fellowships, assistantships, or external sources.
The annual stipend amount provided to Ph.D. candidates during their regular enrollment is intended to support a single graduate student based on estimated costs. Master’s students or students with spouses and/or dependents may require additional resources to support their living expenses – see Loans and Assistance.
As a general reference for graduate students, living costs for a single graduate student are estimated annually by the Graduate School, as detailed below:
