Trustees set tuition for 2025-26

Trustees set undergraduate and graduate tuition, and vote to increase need-based undergraduate financial aid

The Board of Trustees has set undergraduate tuition for the 2025-2026 academic year at $72,180, as part of a 3.5 percent increase in tuition, fees, room, and board, bringing the overall annual cost of attendance at Boston College to $91,792.  

To help offset the increased costs, the trustees voted to enhance need-based undergraduate financial aid by 7.5 percent, or $13 million, to a total of $190 million. Boston College meets 100 percent of demonstrated need for all domestic students, and the average need-based financial aid package is projected to exceed $60,000 in 2025-2026. Overall, more than 67 percent of Boston College undergraduates receive financial aid.

In addition, the Board of Trustees set tuition for graduate programs for the 2025-2026 academic year, including Boston College Law ($72,830), and the full-time MBA program in the Carroll School of Management ($67,680).   

Boston College is ranked 52nd in the “Best Value Schools” category among national universities by U.S. News & World Report and 37th overall in the national universities ranking.
