Title: Announcing Fall 2025-Spring 2026 Undergraduate Tuition Rates

Dear Undergraduate Students,

Each year at this time, we provide an update on tuition, room and board rates for the following academic year (in this case Academic Year 2025-2026) in order to help students and families plan ahead.

For the next academic year, the undergraduate tuition rate will be $71,136, an increase of 4.9% from the current year. When room and board costs are also considered, the total cost of attendance will also increase approximately 4.9% over the prior year’s rates for first year and returning students.

The University will also increase its institutional support for financial aid. For Academic Year 2023-24, the University dedicated a record $265 million for financial aid for undergraduate and graduate students.

The tuition rate reflects a balanced approach to managing rising costs, as well as providing the resources needed for academic and student priorities, new programs and initiatives, and our commitment to minimizing add-on fees.

The pie chart below provides context on how tuition dollars made your Georgetown education possible in the previous fiscal year (July 2023 – June 2024).

Projected distribution of expenses for FY2024: Instruction 30%; Financial Aid; 17.1%; Building maintenance, IT, Financial Services and Other Operations 15%; Dean's Offices, Library and Academic Admin 13.4%; Research 11.4%; Student Health, Counseling, Cultural Dev. 4.5%; Interest, Depreciation, Rent and Building Ops. 5.5%; Scholarship and Fellowships 3.1%

We are deeply committed to ensuring that all students and families can afford the cost of a Georgetown education. Georgetown plans to continue our commitment to meeting the full financial need of all eligible undergraduate students.

The university will continue to consider adjustments to financial aid packages when alerted to new family circumstances and to recruit deserving students regardless of their ability to pay.

Please feel free to share this information with your families. We are deeply grateful for the significant investment that you and your families are making in a Georgetown education, and for your many contributions to our campus community and Catholic, Jesuit educational mission.

Sincerely,
