This page contains estimates of the Cost of Attendance for one year at the University of Virginia, including Tuition and Fees, Room, Board, Personal Expenses and Travel. Each year Student Financial Services establishes standard estimates to help families determine their financial needs for the year, and for financial aid awarding purposes.

The personal expenses estimates shown below reflect modest and restrained expense allowances for University of Virginia students. Some students will spend more than the estimated amounts while others will spend less, depending on individual lifestyles and circumstances. Eligibility for financial aid, however, is based on the standard estimated allowance, not on individual preferences and spending habits.

Note: University tuition and fees are set annually by the Board of Visitors and are effective only for the academic year noted.
