USM Tuition – 2013-2014


University Expenses

The University of Saint Mary is a private institution. The tuition a student pays covers approximately sixty-eight percent of the cost of a University of Saint Mary education. Private gifts meet the difference between the actual cost and the tuition charges. Parents who are able to contribute to the university's educational mission are encouraged to do so by participating in the annual giving program.

An advance non-refundable tuition deposit of $100 is required of all full-time students offered admission and is credited to the first semester's tuition upon enrollment.
