Your cost of attendance, also known as the cost of education or budget, is the total average amount it will cost you to attend SVC in an academic year without considering any financial aid. It is a reference used to determine eligibility for federal funding for 2026-2027. The amounts reflect the estimated costs for a full-time dependent undergraduate student and their residency.
The direct costs listed will be billed to the student invoice. The indirect costs listed are not billed to student invoices; they are estimated expenses that may occur and are mandatory estimates for federal funding. These estimates do not include financial aid and scholarships, and 100% of the freshman class at Saint Vincent College qualify for some form of financial aid.
Additional costs you might incur, depending on your situation, include dependent care, disability-related expenses, cooperative education costs, and study abroad expenses.
If you are enrolled at Saint Vincent College, and it is time to review your bill and make a payment, visit the Student Accounts page designed to help families navigate the process.
