Tuition

At Drew, we know that families are concerned about the cost of college. That's why we provided $27 million in student assistance last year, rewarding academic merit and offsetting financial need. In fact, the "sticker price" of a Drew education is not the actual price paid by most students and families.

For students beginning their bachelor's degree in the fall of 2008, the average tuition cost was $21,393. That's a reduction of $14,517.

For those students who also qualified for federal and state grant assistance, the average tuition cost was $6,712. That's a reduction of $29,198.
