Breaking Down Net Costs

At Framingham State, very few families pay the listed price to attend thanks to our generous financial aid program, supported by state and federal aid, as well as our institutional funding.

The chart below includes a list of the average net cost of attending FSU, based on if you live in or out of state, and whether you plan to commute or live on campus. Remember that if you are a Massachusetts resident whose family makes less than $85,000 in household income, you pay nothing in tuition and fees thanks to the Framingham State Tuition Promise.
