Stevens is a private institution with the same published undergraduate tuition for New Jersey residents and students from other states. In IPEDS 2024-25 reporting, full-time undergraduate tuition was $61,028 and required fees were $2,434, for $63,462 before housing, meals, books, and personal expenses.
Those three categories total approximately $84,662, but they do not constitute every student's complete cost of attendance: transportation and personal spending can add to the budget, while housing choices can change it. Students should use the cost-of-attendance budget published for their actual enrollment year rather than treat this earlier-year calculation as a current bill.
Financial aid can substantially change what a family pays. In the reported aid data, 99% of students received some form of financial aid and 53% had student loans; receiving aid does not mean that aid covers all charges. The average undergraduate grant award across the stated grant sources was $32,182. Grants and scholarships generally do not require repayment, while loans do.
For context, the reported average net price for students from families earning $48,000 or less was $27,603. Net price is an average after grant aid, not a personalized quote, and can include living expenses beyond the tuition bill. Stevens offers institutional aid alongside aid for eligible students from federal and New Jersey programs. Applicants seeking need-based aid should follow the university's current FAFSA and any additional aid-application instructions and deadlines. Veterans and eligible family members can also ask the university's veterans-benefits staff how education benefits interact with other assistance.
Stevens students can pursue part-time work, while eligible students may receive Federal Work-Study as part of a financial-aid award. Work-Study is earned through an eligible job; it is not a grant automatically credited to the tuition bill, and an award does not itself secure a position.
Students seeking campus jobs should review the university's student-employment procedures and available postings, including whether a position requires Work-Study eligibility. An ordinary part-time job does not require a Work-Study award. Either type of employment differs from an internship or co-op, which may be more directly connected to academic or career goals and has its own application and, where applicable, credit rules.
Stevens' career services include individual advising for eligible undergraduates, résumé help, interview preparation, job listings, employer recruitment, career fairs, and alumni networking opportunities. Its cooperative-education and internship resources offer additional ways to explore work experience. These services support a job search; they should not be interpreted as a promise of placement or a particular salary. An internship is not required of every Stevens student.
