The cost of education remains a significant financial challenge for many families. Seemingly small increases can add up over decades, especially with several years of static or declining wages.

Tuition fees​​​​​​
If you are a new student from the USA and plan to start your studies in 2021-2022 or later, your tuition fees are likely to be in line with the international rate. Read more about our fees here.

Living Costs
This is your main cost during University. You are best to plan a budget to include accommodation, food, books, clothes, entertainment, travel and bills like electricity and gas.

We estimate that it will cost you $8,500 – $11,000 a year to live and study as an undergraduate at Estuidar, but it could be more or less, depending on factors such as your choice of accommodation and your lifestyle.

Additional costs
Some programs also involve additional costs, for example studying abroad or compulsory field courses. You should make sure you are aware of these costs early on in your application process. Check our degree finder for information on any additional costs for your chosen program. You can speak to staff in our admissions offices for more details.

1. Complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA®)
It is important to complete the FAFSA each year even if you do not think you will qualify for financial aid. Colleges and universities use the information supplied on the FAFSA to determine your eligibility for grants, scholarships, work-study awards and federal student loans. Submit your FAFSA as early as October 1 and remember that some schools award funds on a first-come, first-served basis.

2. Review Your Student Aid Report (SAR)
Once you complete the FAFSA, the Department of Education will send you a SAR. This report summarizes the information you provided on your FAFSA and estimates your Expected Family Contribution (EFC). If your EFC is lower than the college’s cost of attendance, you will likely qualify for financial aid.

3. Receive a letter
Receive your acceptance letter from Estuidar University.
