*These are direct billed expenses. Cost of attendance is based on the median amount of on campus housing, and food is based on the Any 21 Meal Plan. All students are required to live on campus unless they have received permission from housing to live with a parent/family member. Commuter students are not charged for housing and food, but an allowance is included in the Cost of Attendance. Students who are not covered under a U.S. health-insurance policy will be billed for student health insurance. The estimated cost for this health insurance for the 25-26 academic year is $1,905 to be billed in two equal installments, fall and spring.
**Living off-campus may impact your institutional need-based aid. For more information, please review our online Housing and Food Agreement. Commuters must be approved by Residence Life.
***An additional allowance for transportation expenses is estimated for families living outside the mid-Atlantic region. The allowance is based upon distance from Dickinson College.
