What Does Fordham Actually Cost?

College is a huge choice. It’s probably the biggest commitment of time, energy, and money that you’ve ever made, but college graduates with four-year degrees earn nearly twice as much as non-grads, according to The New York Times.

The Cost of Attendance (COA) varies by school and is an estimate of total expenses before financial aid or scholarships.

Tuition is one component of the COA. Tuition covers the cost of academic instruction. The COA includes other expenses like other fees and books, as well as an estimate of standard living expenses like housing, food, and transportation. Since each student's financial needs differ, the estimated COA may be lower depending on the student’s circumstances.
