For 2024-25, reported full-time undergraduate tuition was $32,600, with $1,452 in required fees, for $34,052 before living expenses. The reported charges were the same for in-state and out-of-state undergraduates. Typical room and board charges totaled $14,560, and estimated books and supplies added $1,300.
Those items sum to $49,912 for an academic year, but that is not a complete personal budget: transportation, personal expenses and any program-specific charges can add to it. Nor is it what every student pays after aid. Reported average net prices varied by family-income group, from $15,200 for families earning up to $48,000 to $27,145 for those earning more than $110,000. Net price reflects costs after grant and scholarship aid for the students included in the measure; an individual offer may be different.
To compare La Roche with another institution, use estimates for the same academic year and living arrangement, then subtract grants and scholarships before considering loans. Borrowed money helps cover a bill but does not reduce its underlying price.
Students may be able to combine classes with part-time employment, but a campus job and a Federal Work-Study award are not the same thing. Federal Work-Study is need-based financial aid that eligible students earn through an approved job; an award is not cash paid in advance or a guarantee of a position.
Students considering work should review their aid offer for Work-Study eligibility and ask how La Roche posts and hires for student positions. Ordinary campus jobs may have different funding rules. Hours, wages and availability matter as much as eligibility, particularly for students whose classes, labs or placements limit when they can work.
