What is the cost of studying for a year at Montserrat College of Art?

For 2024-25, reported full-time undergraduate tuition was $38,990, with $1,700 in required fees, for $40,690 before living expenses. The reported tuition was the same for in-state and out-of-state students. These historical charges should not be treated as a current bill.

  • Tuition and required fees: $40,690 for the reported academic year.
  • Room and board: $15,535 in reported annual charges.
  • Books and supplies: $3,350 in reported annual costs.

Adding those reported categories produces $59,575, but it is not a complete cost-of-attendance estimate: transportation, personal expenses, and individual art-material needs may add to the total. It is also a published-cost illustration, not what every student pays after aid.

Reported average net prices varied by family income. For families with annual income of $48,000 or less, the figure was $29,977; for those earning $75,001 to $110,000, it was $37,366. Net price is an average after grant aid, not an individualized offer. Institutional reporting indicates that all students in the relevant aid measure received financial aid, while 75% used student loans. Those figures make it especially important to separate grants and scholarships, which generally do not require repayment, from loans, which do.

What are the work-study opportunities at Montserrat College of Art?

Montserrat's reported career services included individual career counseling, résumé assistance, interview preparation, job listings, employer contacts, and alumni networking. Institutional information also describes an internship requirement. An internship is an academic or professional experience; it is not automatically a paid job or a Federal Work-Study position.

Federal Work-Study, when available to an eligible student, is a need-based financial-aid program through which the student earns wages for approved work. It is distinct from a grant credited to a bill and from ordinary part-time employment. Students should review their individual aid offer and ask the financial aid office how positions are advertised, whether they must secure a job themselves, and how wages are paid. Career-center services and employer events can support a search, but they do not constitute a verified employment outcome.
