Tuition & Fees

We Are Here to Help!

Per the merger agreement with Villanova University, Rosemont College is no longer admitting new students. 

We start with transparent pricing as you explore the cost of a Rosemont College education. Rosemont’s base tuition is well below that of similar institutions because we believe the standard “high price, high discount” model is misleading and confusing. Instead, Rosemont follows a transparent low price, low discount model, trusting that families will value this honest approach and consider the bottom line cost when making a decision and exploring ways to fund their education.

Estimated Cost of Attendance

Policies

Deposit Policy

First Year and Transfer Students
Once an applicant is accepted to the College, a $350 enrollment deposit ($200 for commuters) is required to guarantee enrollment and a place in the residence halls. The $200 fee is credited as an Enrollment deposit as a one time fee for all students and is assessed when the student matriculates for the first time and is credited to the first semester’s bill. Enrollment dent deposits are nonrefundable after May 1.

International Students
International first year and transfer students are required to submit an enrollment deposit of $350 ($200 for commuters) to reserve a place in the class.

The fee is credited as an Enrollment deposit as a one time fee for all students and is assessed when the student matriculates for the first time.

Some scholarships and financial aid programs are available to eligible non US citizens. Parents or sponsors are required to provide documentation of financial resources to support a student’s total educational and personal expenses prior to the issuance of the application for a student visa. All international students are required to provide documentation that shows that they have health insurance coverage. Students may also purchase coverage through Rosemont College. Information on the student health insurance plan is available through the Student Life Office.

General Financial Information

The payment of charges for tuition, room and board, and applicable fees for the first and second semester is available in the most up to date course catalog and can be seen on the Course Catalog & School Handbook page. Tuition payments received after the due dates are subject to
a late payment fee. Checks or money orders are to be made payable to “Rosemont College.” Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover credit cards are also accepted for payment of educational costs through CashNet. PLEASE NOTE: a 2.83 percent charge will apply if students
use credit cards on the iWay to make a payment. This is a charge from the credit card company not the college. The College also offers an interest free tuition payment plan with a fee due with the initial payment. Specific information on the plan is available through Cashnet.

The College reserves the right to alter tuition and fees without prior notice.

Internship Expenses

Student interns who reside on campus pay full room and board, and tuition and fees for the Rosemont credits earned in the internship, if any. Student interns who reside offcampus pay full tuition for the Rosemont credits earned in the internship.

Outstanding Financial Obligations

Students will not be issued transcripts of credits or diplomas, or enrollment/degree verifications if they have any outstanding financial obligations (including damage and penalty fees, parking and library fines, etc.) with the College. The College reserves the right to cancel the registration of any student for failure to fulfill financial obligations.

Room & Board Policy

The semester charges for room and board must be paid in full before a student is permitted to reside on campus. Since all residence hall rooms are reserved for both fall and spring semesters of the academic year, changes or alterations will be subject to the following conditions:

• Double rooms that are used as single rooms are subject to the fees for single rooms. Any student attempting to occupy a room without the permission of the Director of Residential Life will be subject to a penalty of $200 per day and immediate removal from campus.
• Should a student choose to withdraw or to take a leave of absence from the College after the residence halls are open for occupancy and before the completion of the second week of the semester, a refund not exceeding 50% of the room and board rate may be requested. No refunds will be considered for any reason after the close of business on the Friday of the second week of the semester.
• No refund will be made after payment is received to students who request to leave the residence halls but continue to be enrolled in classes.
• The College does not assume responsibility for students’ personal property. Insurance for personal property is advisable.

The College reserves the right to alter tuition and fees without prior notice.

Tuition Refund Policy

Since College commitments are made based on student enrollments, full tuition will not be refunded after the payment due date. Should a student choose to withdraw, drop below full time status, or take a leave of absence after registration and before the completion of the second week of classes, a refund not exceeding 80% of the tuition may be requested. No refunds will be given after the second week of classes. Title IV recipients are subject to the Title IV refund policy. The date of withdrawal, drop, or leave of absence is determined as being the time the Director of the Student Academic Support Center receives written notice from the student.

Undergraduate College Tuition Refund Policy
A student who withdraws from semester length classes may be entitled to a refund according to the schedule listed below. Fees are not refundable, except for those classes that have been canceled by the College or for students who have withdrawn before the first day of classes.
The date of a drop/add or Withdrawal is determined by the records of the Office of the Registrar, not the date the student stops attending class. The percentage of tuition to be refunded to the student is as follows:
• Students who withdraw before the first day of classes will receive a 100% refund of tuition.
• Students who withdraw during the first and second weeks of a new semester will receive an 80% refund of tuition.
• Students who withdraw during the third week of a new semester will receive a 50% refund of tuition.
• Students who withdraw during the fourth week of a new semester will receive a 20% refund of tuition.

No refunds will be issued to students that withdraw after the fourth week of class.

The first scheduled meeting of a class constitutes the beginning of the refund period for that class. The refund period may change based upon the length or nature of the class. Refunds are determined by the Business Office only. Financial aid is adjusted accordingly with regard to the number of credits that have been dropped. If a student withdraws, or if a credit balance results from financial aid awards or student overpayment, a refund may be expected in the mail within a timely manner.

Refunds for Dropped Classes in the Schools of Graduate and Professional Studies
A student who drops a class prior to the first scheduled meeting of a class may be entitled to a full refund if the class is formally dropped. If a student drops a class prior to the second scheduled meeting of a class, they will be entitled to an 80% refund if the class is formally dropped. If a class is dropped after the second scheduled meeting of a class, the student is not entitled to a refund. The date of a drop is determined by the records of the Office of the Registrar, not the date the student stops attending class. The refund period may change based upon the length or nature of the class. For example, Turbo classes must be dropped prior to the first scheduled class meeting. Please Note: financial aid is
adjusted accordingly with regard to the number of credits that have been dropped. If you are an undergraduate student and you drop below 6 credit hours for the semester, all of your aid may have to be returned. If you are a graduate student and you drop below 4.5 credit hours for the semester, all of your aid may have to be returned. It is advisable that you consult with the Financial Aid Officer regarding the ramifications of dropping a class.

Withdrawls

If a student withdraws from a class after the drop/add period, the student is not entitled to a refund and is also financially obligated for the cost of the class.

Instrumental Science to Become a Physician

"I have wanted to be a doctor since high school. Rosemont and the science program have been instrumental in my path to becoming a physician. Dr. Skokotas has guided me and helped me in many ways. I’m so thankful for the supportive environment and opportunities that Rosemont offered!"

- Archana Ganta
Rosemont College Biology Alumni

Individual Attention & an Invaluable Skill Set

“The Chemistry department at Rosemont College prepared me for my career by providing me with research opportunities which gave me basic lab skills that were the foundation for my career in chemistry. I also believe the most beneficial parts of my Rosemont education were the small class sizes and individual attention. Because of this, I was given many opportunities to give presentations in class, receiving feedback on my public speaking skills and ways to calm my nerves. My professors gave me an invaluable skill set: to present myself, my research, and my ideas to the world confidently and clearly.”

- Lauren Profitt
Rosemont College Chemistry Alumni

Abundance of Opportunities

"Rosemont College has provided me with an abundance of opportunities that I would not have found anywhere else. I've been able to take the information from my courses and apply it to the real world. The hands on experience has been critical in helping me find my path. Between my internship at the Montgomery County Coroner's Office and the classes I've taken during my tenure at Rosemont, I believe that I'm well equipped for what lies ahead!"

- Gabby Godwin
Rosemont College Criminology Alumni

Mentoring That Makes Dream Jobs a Reality

“Being an elementary school teacher has been my dream since I was in first grade. Now, I’m teaching in that same school district! Rosemont’s Education program helped make my dream a reality thanks to the mentorship provided by my professors. They worked closely with me during my classes and student teaching to make sure I was successful, and their familiarity with local schools was a huge help in my job search. My classmates were extremely supportive, too. Even after graduation, we’ve all stayed in touch and support one another as we begin our careers.”   

- Frankie DiGironimo
Rosemont College Education Alumni

A Competitive Edge

“The summer before my senior year, I was encouraged to apply for an internship at a rare book museum in Philadelphia. Prior to applying for this internship, I doubted whether I was qualified for such a role, but I was encouraged by the faculty--especially within the English department. Without their support, I would not have had the confidence to apply nor the competitive edge needed to land the internship. Within the college, I was granted work experience through the library and college archives which continues to aid me as I am working in my graduate studies. Even now, I feel like the English department continues to support my academic pursuits and their mentorship and guidance is invaluable.”

- Hope Smalley
Rosemont College English and Communication Alumni

Enhanced Skills

“My time in the History department enhanced my research, writing, and public speaking skills. My professors’ rich and engaging courses instilled in me a deep passion for the subject matter. Through class trips to museums, I started to favor an object based approach to history that I pursued in my graduate studies.”

- Mary Manfredi, Registrar at Sotheby’s
Rosemont College History Alumni

Innovative Skills That Land Media Jobs

“Rosemont's New Media Communication program has prepared me for the multiple achievements I’ve already experienced in my career. I developed journalism skills that allowed me to be innovative in the news environment, which helped me land my current position as an assistant producer at KYW News Radio.”

- Talaya Martin-Green
Rosemont College New Media Communication Alumni

Rigorous Set of Skills

"One of the greatest benefits of studying philosophy is acquiring a uniquely rigorous set of skills. These skills are both personal and intellectual, allowing you to decipher day to day events in a distinctive yet grounded way. It provides a way of thinking that increases your ability to think clearly about your personal problems and your professional challenges. More than this, philosophy complements and enhances the broadest range of interests and responsibilities, whether they are intellectual or in the workplace. At the end of the day, studying philosophy puts you in the unique position of being able to not only understand your own beliefs more clearly, but also in recognizing the problems and potential you carry in your everyday life."

- Vincent Carchidi
Rosemont College Philosophy Alumni

Complex Insight

"I’m a Sociology major, and some may not realize the complexity of the subject because you’re studying people. But after learning about it for the past few years and navigating my way through different situations, I feel like I’ve gained insight into the inner workings of our society and culture. I also feel that I have grown into a well rounded and fully me person."

- Casandra Antzoulatos 
Rosemont College Sociology Alumni

Invested in You

"I have recently graduated and just landed a job with a big four accounting firm. The most powerful lesson I learned at Rosemont is that when a community invests in your success, you have the responsibility to give it your all. Over the course of my undergraduate career, I have worked diligently to develop skills to be successful. I am currently pursuing my CPA licensure in Pennsylvania."

- Brandon Jones
Rosemont College Accounting Alumni

"What one is called to do, one is called to do with all their might."
