Pace is a private university, so the reported full-time undergraduate tuition is the same for New York and out-of-state students. In the 2024-25 IPEDS figures, tuition was $51,602 and required fees were $1,908; housing, meals, books, transportation, and personal expenses were additional.
Adding those four reported categories gives $79,356 for an illustrative academic year, before transportation and personal expenses. It is not an individual bill or a complete cost-of-attendance estimate, and a commuter's housing and food costs will differ. Published charges may also change by academic year.
Aid can substantially change what a student pays. For families in the reported annual-income band of $0-$48,000, the average net price was $26,362; for families above $110,000, it was $36,430. Net price estimates reflect aid and are averages, not quotes for an applicant. Students comparing offers should distinguish grants and scholarships, which generally do not require repayment, from loans and work-study earnings.
Eligible Pace students may be able to work through Federal Work-Study, while other students can seek ordinary part-time positions. Federal Work-Study is a need-based financial aid program: being offered it does not itself assign a job or place the full award in a student's account.
Students generally establish federal aid eligibility through the FAFSA, then apply for available positions and earn wages for hours worked. Campus jobs can differ in duties, schedules, and availability; some approved off-campus work-study positions may also be possible under program rules. A non-work-study job does not require a work-study award, though it may have a different funding source and hiring process. Paid employment, an internship for academic credit, and a career-development opportunity may overlap, but they are not interchangeable. Pace's student employment and financial aid offices are the appropriate places to verify current openings and work-study conditions.
