Invest in Yourself at Curry

A Curry College education is an investment in the person you want to become — and the life that you want to live.

You’ll gain the knowledge and tools to be a leader in your field and your community. You’ll develop the self-discipline, character and responsibility that come from living and learning with others — often people from different backgrounds and with different beliefs. And you’ll have a chance to learn from professors, advisors, coaches, mentors and others in an environment that encourages exploration, growth and even mistakes.

As an investment, a Curry College degree goes a long way: People with degrees earn far more over the course of their lives than people who don’t. And it’s more accessible than you think: Every year, we award $45 million in scholarships and grants.

Find out what you can expect to pay and how we can bring it within reach.

Your financial aid eligibility is determined by taking your cost of attendance for the academic year minus your student aid index (results of filing the FAFSA). Your cost of attendance is comprised of your direct, billed costs for tuition and fees and if applicable, room and board. Additionally, you incur related indirect education expenses for which you are not billed such as books and supplies, transportation costs, etc. The combination of your direct and indirect costs equals your cost of attendance.

The direct costs shown below are actual expenses for the 2025-2026 academic year. Students should also expect to incur indirect costs such as costs for books and supplies. Direct costs appear on a student’s bill, while indirect costs vary according to individual needs. Please remember that students must purchase their books each semester directly from the book store.
