Annual Tuition & Fees

Add up the value.
A Rutgers education is a sound investment. As a public school, Rutgers can offer tuition and fees significantly lower than those of its private-school peers. And, as a major research university, Rutgers provides an academic program that stands with the best in the nation. Reasonable cost, with no compromise in quality. We call that a value.
