Students walking on Syracuse University's campus.

Education is an investment in your future and understanding the costs will make planning easier.

Cost of attendance can vary by program due to special fees, and annual increases are sometimes necessary to maintain high-quality instruction, facilities, and services; the University works to keep those increases reasonable.

It's good practice to know how much financial aid you're eligible for—including scholarships and grants—and, if you borrow, to make sure future loan payments will be a reasonable percentage of your expected earnings.

Incoming first-year students are required to live in University housing for their first two years, unless their immediate family lives in the Syracuse area and they choose to commute. Unless you report "living with parent/family" on the CSS Profile, we will assign first- and second-year students the "Living On Campus" Cost of Attendance, and third- and fourth-year students the "Living Off Campus" Cost of Attendance.

If your Cost of Attendance in MySlice doesn't match your actual living situation, schedule an appointment with your Financial Aid Counselor in Orange Success or contact our office to have it updated.
