Tuition and Financial Aid
A college education is arguably the most important investment you will ever make. At Tufts, we open the application process to everyone, even those who see the cost and think they cannot afford it.
Each year, Tufts awards more than $87 million in need-based financial aid to more than 40 percent of its undergraduate student body. We are very serious about making sure that all of our qualified applicants can afford a Tufts education. All of our financial aid is awarded on the basis of financial need, as determined through the analysis of family resources on the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), the CSS/Financial Aid PROFILE , and family tax returns. Financial aid packages are comprised of a combination of grants, loans and work study. Tufts meets 100% of the full demonstrated need of all admitted students.
You may also use the Financial Aid Calculator to get an estimate of the expected family contribution and gain insight into your financial aid eligibility.
