Cost of Attendance
In preparation to attend Berklee, it is important to not only understand the cost of tuition and related fees, but also the total cost of attendance (COA). A student's COA is made of up direct and indirect charges. Direct charges are Berklee charges on your student account, such as tuition and fees. Indirect costs are average allowances for other education-related expenses that are not a part of your Berklee bill, such as off-campus housing, books and supplies, and travel and personal expenses.
The COA indicates the maximum amount of resources (including Berklee and outside scholarships, financial aid, and private loans) that we may process on a student's behalf. These figures are based on full-time enrollment for the fall and spring semesters.
