Cost of Attendance

The annual Cost of Attendance is calculated by combining all expenses for the academic year, including both charges billed directly by the college and additional costs families may incur, such as books, supplies, transportation, and personal expenses.

As a result, the Cost of Attendance used to determine financial aid eligibility is typically higher than the amount reflected on your billing statement. Our affordability facts highlight our commitment to making an Olin education accessible. You can also visit the College Scorecard for additional information about Olin’s costs and outcomes.
