Cost of Attendance

For specific information on Santa Clara University tuitions, fees, housing, meal plans and other related charges, please refer the University's tuition and fees.

For graduate students, the Cost of Attendance is set to three quarter time. If you are currently enrolled full-time and/or plan to enroll full-time, you may notify our office and we will adjust your COA to reflect enrollment. Please keep in mind that enrollment less than three quarter time will result in COA being adjusted and aid will be reduced as needed. 

Request for additional educational-related expenses, such as child care, additional course expenses, or a one-time purchase of a computer, are viewed on a case-by-case basis.

As you are reviewing the costs, you may want to learn how to apply for financial aid, how we determine financial aid, the types of aid and other consumer information.
