What is the cost of studying for a year at Saint Joseph's College of Maine?

For 2024-25, reported full-time undergraduate tuition was $44,120 for both Maine and out-of-state students, with $300 in required fees. Reported annual room and board charges were $15,384. Adding those published categories produces $59,804, not a complete cost-of-attendance estimate: books, transportation, personal expenses, and any program-specific charges may add to the amount.

  • Full-time undergraduate tuition: $44,120 for 2024-25.
  • Required undergraduate fees: $300 for 2024-25.
  • Reported room and board: $15,384 for the academic year.
  • Part-time undergraduate tuition: $1,200 per credit in the reported schedule.

The published price is not necessarily what an individual student pays after aid. Reported average grant aid for undergraduates was $27,141, but an average award is not an offer to a particular applicant. Income-group net-price figures also vary: the reported average was $20,376 for families with annual income up to $48,000 and $32,613 for families above $110,000. Net price generally reflects costs after grant and scholarship aid, not after loans are subtracted.

Eligible students may finance attendance with federal or state grants, institutional scholarships, federal loans, and, where applicable, military education benefits. In the measured aid cohort, 100% received some form of financial aid and 60% had student loans. Students should compare their own aid offer with the college's current cost-of-attendance budget, keeping grants separate from money that must be repaid. Graduate and online-program pricing should be checked against the schedule for the particular credential rather than inferred from residential undergraduate tuition.

What are the work-study opportunities at Saint Joseph's College of Maine?

Eligible Saint Joseph's students may be able to combine coursework with part-time student employment, including jobs funded through Federal Work-Study. Work-Study is need-based federal aid awarded through the financial-aid process; it generally pays wages for hours worked rather than reducing a tuition bill automatically.

A student job that is not funded by Work-Study is a different arrangement, and an internship may have separate academic-credit or pay rules. Students seeking employment should review their aid offer to see whether Work-Study was awarded, then check the college's current student-job listings and hiring procedures. They should ask about weekly-hour limits and scheduling if their program includes labs, clinical shifts, or field placements.

Career support is broader than student employment. Reported services include individual and group career counseling, résumé help, interview preparation, job fairs, employer recruitment, and alumni networking. These services can assist a job search, but their availability is not a verified employment outcome or a job offer.
