SYRACUSE — The tuition cost for full-time undergraduates at Syracuse University will be higher in the upcoming academic year as the school commits additional resources to help students pay the cost. Syracuse University will increase tuition for full-time undergraduate students by 3.9 percent to $63,710 for the 2024-25 school year. The university’s tuition for undergrads in the recently completed 2023-24 school year was $61,310. In announcing the tuition hike, Syracuse also notes that its 2024-25 budget will include $372 million in student financial aid through financial aid, grants, scholarships, and other assistance, per the university’s May 20 announcement. That represents an 8 percent increase over the prior year, the university noted. “We are focused on creating opportunity for and providing access to talented students from across the socioeconomic spectrum,” Ryan Williams, VP for enrollment services, contended in the announcement. “Our historic commitment to financial aid ensures that Syracuse University continues to be a place where students from a variety of backgrounds can live, learn and thrive. After receiving a record-breaking number of applications this admissions cycle, we look forward to welcoming a remarkable group of students this fall.” The Syracuse University board of trustees also recently approved the rates for room and board and fees Room rates for most full-time new and returning undergraduates will be $10,500; board rates increased 3 percent. The rate, which includes the Orange Unlimited meal plan that “offers greater value and flexibility,” is now $7,880, the university said. In addition, the student activity fee will remain the same; the residential internet and cable access and service fees are set as $460; the co-curricular fee will be $275; and the health and wellness fee is set at $872, Syracuse University added. Add in other estimated costs such as books, transportation, and personal expenses and it brings the total cost of attendance for undergrads living on campus to $88,560 for the coming academic year, according to the Syracuse University admissions website. Add in health insurance and the total cost of attendance is pegged at $91,034.
For undergraduates living off campus, the total cost of attendance is estimated at $86,664 for the 2024-25 school year and $89,138 with health insurance.
