Tuition Cost & Financial Aid

---

Every charge and fee that you or your parents pay is included in the estimation of the total cost of a full year of school. This includes tuition (in- or out-of-state), books, supplies, other various fees and charges, and also what you may pay for your rent and meals. At the University of Baltimore, this is estimated at $34,196 for a recent academic.

Nevertheless, you aren’t likely to have to pay all of this. Your financial aid may help with some of the cost.

Because of the way you are found to be eligible for financial aid (family income), you may pay a different amount based on your family’s annual income. In that same recent year, families who earned between $30,000 and $48,000 paid around $19,192, while families who earned between $75,000 and 110,000 paid around $26,583.
