Cost of Attendance

A Centre education is more affordable than you think—most students do not pay the full “sticker price.”

The Centre “Sticker Price” 

Your out-of-pocket expenses are what we call the “cost after aid” — this cost will vary based on the amount of financial aid you are offered. Aid may include merit scholarships and need-based aid. 

2022-2023 Annual Cost of Attendance 

Tuition $48,070 
Room & Board $12,300
Sticker Price $60,370 

 

We Invest In You

Our investment in you can help you and your family meet the total cost of attendance beyond your participation in federal and state aid programs.
