Published charges are the starting point for estimating the cost of attending St. Joseph's University, New York; an individual student's bill depends on enrollment, housing and aid. For the 2024-25 reporting period, full-time undergraduate tuition was listed at $35,840, with $710 in required fees. The same tuition was reported for in-state and out-of-state students.
Those listed amounts total $56,878 for a student using that housing-and-dining estimate, before transportation and personal expenses. That is an illustration from one reporting period, not a current personalized cost-of-attendance quote. A commuter would have different living costs; a part-time student would face a different tuition calculation.
Aid can change the amount a student pays. Reported figures show that 99% of students received some form of financial aid and 52% had student loans; receiving aid does not mean receiving enough grants to cover the full bill. The reported average net price for families with income of $0-$48,000 was $15,633, but net price averages are not individual awards. Eligible students may be considered for federal grants and loans, New York State aid and institutional scholarships. The financial aid offer and current cost-of-attendance budget are the documents to use for a household-specific comparison.
Students can pursue part-time employment alongside their studies, including positions that may be funded through Federal Work-Study. Work-Study is a need-based federal aid program for eligible students; it is not the same as a grant paid upfront or a guarantee of a job.
Students interested in Work-Study should complete the financial aid application process and review their award notice, then check how St. Joseph's posts and fills available positions. Those without a Work-Study award may still be eligible for other campus jobs. Either kind of employment should be weighed against commuting time, class attendance and, where applicable, required clinical or field placements.
Career support is separate from 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 with an internship or job search, but their availability is not an employment outcome or a placement guarantee.
