Cost of Attendance

The Financial Aid Office at Worcester State University uses standardized student expense budgets when calculating need. Budgets are reviewed and updated annually, and include tuition, fees, books, room and board, transportation, and personal expenses. Worcester State may adjust a student’s budget for unusual individual circumstances.

The following table shows the student expense budgets used by Worcester State for a full-time student during the 2020-2021 academic year. Tuition and fees are subject to approval and change by the Massachusetts Legislature, and/or the Worcester State Board of Trustees.
