Tuition, Fees, and Expenses

Student Budget
The estimated budget for a Juilliard student for the nine-month academic year 2010-11 is calculated as follows:

Tuition $32,180
Room and Board (residence hall and meal plan)
  Double Room 12,280
  Single Room 15,330
Subtotals
  Double Room 44,460
  Single Room 51,720
Books, Supplies, Personal Expenses 4,210
Totals
Double Room $48,670
Single Room $51,720

Please note that all first-time college students are required to live in the residence hall. Students who live off campus should expect their housing and food costs to be higher than those listed here. They should also calculate local transportation costs of some $800 into their budgets. In those exceptional instances in which students are allowed to have a double major, the School charges an additional $8,900 in tuition. The additional charge for a secondary major is $4,820 (for one half hour per week lesson) or $8,900 (for one hour).

Application Fees
The application fee is nonrefundable. Make check or money order payable to The Juilliard School. All checks must be drawn on a U.S. bank. Payment by credit card is only available for applications submitted online at www.juilliard.edu/admissions. Please do not submit both applications.

Fee waivers are available only for eligible high school seniors whose requests are accompanied by 1. an official College Board fee waiver form (available through high school guidance offices) with a school official's signature; or 2. a letter on school stationery from a college/guidance counselor requesting a fee waiver for the applicant. Fee waivers are not available to applicants for transfer or graduate status. Applicants using the online application must submit fee waiver requests in advance of the appropriate application deadline.
