Tuition
Here is a breakdown of tuition and fees at Mount Saint Mary College for the 2021-2022 academic year. Remember, most of our students receive some form of financial aid, so the cost of tuition may be significantly lower for you depending on your academic achievements and financial need. Be sure to check out our scholarships page for more information or our Net Price Calculator for an estimate of what a Mount education might cost for you.
Please note that not all fees may apply to you (ie. late or return check fees or fees for specific academic programs). They are provided for you here to estimate your total cost of attendance.

5-Year Program Majors attending graduate and undergraduate level courses (in the same academic term) receive per credit tuition billing at the respective graduate and undergraduate rates.
- 5-Year Education Majors – BA/MSed track – have the option to receive the alumni discount for graduate courses or to extend institutional aid (excluding the MSMC Grant) to the fall and spring terms of their 5th year (9th & 10th semesters), if attending full-time. [Institutional aid is reduced to cover the cost of tuition only (not fees)]
- 5-Year BS/MBA and BA/MBA Majors may not extend institutional aid to the fall and spring terms of their 5th year (9th & 10th semesters), as their traditional undergraduate degree is conferred at the conclusion of their 4th year. At the start of their 5th year, BS/MBA and BA/MBA Majors are classified as graduates (no longer eligible for institutional aid) and may receive the alumni discount on graduate-level courses.
Mount Alumni: Students who earned a bachelor's or master's degree from the Mount (with the exception of 5-year bachelor's/master's degree scholarship students) may receive a 25% reduction to graduate tuition! Come back to the Mount for a graduate degree, save money, and improve your range of possibilities in a competitive job market.
