Notes:
The charges listed here apply to the 2007-08 academic year. The university will announce costs for the 2008-09 academic year after January 1, 2008.
¹ The cost for room and board is an estimate based on a standard double room in university housing, a dining service plan contract and the residence hall activity fee. Some students will be housed in triples and quads at a lower rate, without a reduction in their eligibility for financial aid.
² Students enrolled in the Schools of Architecture, Art, and Design customarily spend $490 more than the amount listed above because of the higher cost of art supplies needed for their work.
³ A travel allowance for resident students depends on the distance from the student's home to Carnegie Mellon. This allowance will vary in range from $0 to a maximum of $1,500.
†In addition, minimal health insurance coverage is required at an estimated cost of $820/year for all students unless a waiver is granted for students covered under their family's health plan. Premium health insurance coverage is suggested for international students at an estimated cost of $1,816/year.
The University reserves the right to change its charges without notice.
