For most students, your cost will be less than the published cost and we will help you find ways to make the investment in a Principia College education. We have a number of scholarships, grants, student employment and payment plan options that help defray costs.

These costs are averages based on full-time (12–15 semester hour) enrollment, room and board, and student fees, but do not include books, lab fees, student health insurance, or personal expenses. Tuition, fees, and room and board are payable each semester according to payment plan guidelines established by Billing Services.
