Tuition Rates for 5 year BA/MSE students
Students enrolled in 5-Year Master and Bachelors programs, attending both graduate and undergraduate courses (within the same academic term), receive per credit tuition billing at the respective graduate and undergraduate rates. (Effective 2016) The graduate tuition rate for the 2019-2020 academic year is $844 per credit.
Payment of Tuition and Fees
Tuition and fees are due one-week before the semester or session begins. Checks should be made payable to Mount Saint Mary College. Visa Discover, AMEX, and MasterCard are accepted. Credit card and e-check/ACH payments may be made online through the Student Portal.
Students who prefer to pay tuition and expenses on a monthly basis may enroll in the monthly payment plan each fall and spring semester. For more information, contact the Student Financial Services Office (845-569-3700) or visit msmc.edu/mpp.
Account balances not satisfied by the due date are subject to a late payment fee. Students may not register for classes or receive their diploma/official transcript, with an outstanding balance. Past due accounts are subject to all collection and/or legal fees, which may be as high as 50% of the outstanding balance.
Books and supplies are available for purchase at the Campus Store. The estimated expenses per year for books and supplies is $1,000; estimated expenses per year for personal costs (spending money, laundry and incidental needs) is $1,000; estimated costs per year for commuter transportation is $1,500. Students planning to live off-campus should allow approximately $5,400 per year for rental and $1,800 per year for food.
Housing Deposits
Students in residence at the college may renew their room reservations annually, before February 28, by making a deposit of $300.
Deposits are non-refundable, However, they appear on the current billing statement to offset the cost of room and board charges.
Newly admitted students are encouraged to make their deposits before April 15 (or within a month of acceptance) if the acceptance date is after April 15. Deposits are refundable if the Director of Admissions receives notice of non-attendance on or prior to May 1.
Triple Room Discount Policy (effective July 1, 2016)
Any first-year student occupying a triple room by October 1, and not offered the option to relocate to a double room, will have a $500 semester discount applied to room fees for that term. Students offered the option to relocate to a double room prior to October 1, but decline, will not be eligible for such a discount.
Dorm Damage Deposit (effective Fall 2016)
A portion of a first-time resident student’s housing deposit ($100) is withheld to offset any dorm damage charges. This deposit ensures adherence to the terms and conditions of the housing agreement, and return of the unit to its original condition when the student exits the space.
The deposit is not a damage fund where intermittent damage charge deductions occur during the course of the student's residency; however, any damage charges incurred during the final year of residency are deducted from the deposit, with any remaining credit refunded to the student.
Refund of Tuition and Fees
All refunds of tuition, fees, room and board are subject to the conditions below.

Whether entirely withdrawing from the college or dropping an individual course(s), the student must provide written notice to the Registrar. The date of the withdrawal is determined by the date the request if received in the Registrar’s Office. Percentage refund dates are available in the Academic Calendar.
Any traditional student dropping below 12-credits (full-time status) risks losing full-time financial aid (institutional awards/grants/scholarships).
Students residing on campus must attend full-time. Traditional resident students enrolled in less than 12-credits must receive permission from Residence Life to remain in housing. The date a student completes the dorm checkout process determines the housing exit date. This includes returning room and mailbox keys to the Office of Residence Life.
