Fairleigh Dickinson University-Florham Campus

What is the cost of studying for a year at Fairleigh Dickinson University-Florham Campus?

For the 2024-25 reporting year, Florham's listed full-time undergraduate tuition was $36,288, with $1,180 in required fees, for $37,468 before housing or other expenses. The reported tuition and fee amounts were the same for in-state and out-of-state undergraduates.

• Full-time undergraduate tuition and required fees: $37,468.
• Typical annual room and board charges: $16,808.
• Estimated books and supplies: $1,290.

Adding those listed amounts produces $55,566, but that is not a complete individual cost-of-attendance budget: transportation, personal expenses, and other applicable costs can add to it. A commuter would have a different housing and meal budget. Part-time students were listed at $1,044 per undergraduate credit, so their cost depends on the number of credits and applicable fees.

Published charges are not the same as a family's net price after grants and scholarships. In 2024-25 aid reporting, 100% of the measured student group received some form of financial aid, and 55% had student loans; a loan reduces the amount due immediately but must generally be repaid. The reported average grant award was $29,036 among recipients. Average net price varied by family income: it was $14,383 for the lowest reported income band, covering families with annual income up to $48,000, and $34,331 for families above $110,000. Those are group averages, not offers to individual applicants.

Eligible students may use federal and state grants, institutional aid, and federal loans, subject to their circumstances and aid applications. New Jersey residents should also check state-aid eligibility; veterans and eligible family members should ask how military education benefits apply to their program. For a meaningful comparison, use a current, individualized aid offer and confirm which scholarships renew and under what academic conditions.

What are the work-study opportunities at Fairleigh Dickinson University-Florham Campus?

Florham students can seek part-time employment, and eligible students may qualify for Federal Work-Study through their financial-aid package. Work-Study is an employment program: an award indicates potential earnings through an eligible job, not a grant automatically credited in full to the tuition bill. Job availability and hiring are separate from aid eligibility.

Students should distinguish Work-Study positions from other campus jobs and from internships, which may be paid, unpaid, or undertaken for academic credit. The financial-aid and student-employment offices can explain eligibility and where positions are posted; students interested in career-related work can also use FDU's career services for job-search and internship support.

Reported career-center services include individual and group counseling, résumé preparation, interview workshops, job fairs, employer recruitment, and alumni networking. These are useful ways to prepare and make contacts, but access to a service is not evidence that a student will receive a particular internship or job offer. FDU does not report an internship requirement for every undergraduate.
