What you need to know
Tuition for the upcoming academic year is published each March after being approved by the MIT Corporation. Your tuition depends on your registration load. As the steward of your registration, the Registrar’s Office assesses tuition.
Some key points to remember:
- Payment of full tuition in the fall or spring terms also covers subjects taken for academic credit during the Independent Activities Period (IAP) in January.
- There are a number of miscellaneous fees associated with registration.
- If you need assistance with your MITPay Student Account, please contact your customer service counselor at Student Financial Services (SFS).
- For more detailed information regarding the cost of attendance for the 2026–2027 academic year including tuition and fees; books and supplies; and housing, food, and transportation; please visit the undergraduate and graduate pages on the SFS website.
