The ÐÓ°ÉÔ´´ Tuition Promise
As a student at ÐÓ°ÉÔ´´, the ÐÓ°ÉÔ´´ Tuition Promise guarantees you can pursue your art and your education with the confidence that your base tuition rate will not increase for the normal expected length of your degree program. This promise sets the Institute apart from its peers as the only conservatory to make this commitment.
Housing costs, fees, surcharges and any other costs falling outside of the base tuition rate are excluded from the Promise and are subject to change. The exclusions include, but are not limited to, the student services fee, performance services fee, health service fee, health insurance fee, housing, meals, dual degree tuition surcharge, double major surcharge, secondary study fee, over maximum credit surcharge, orientation fees, summer English course fee, piano rental fee, and the late registration fee.

SCHOLARSHIP AND FINANCIAL AID
In addition to the Promise, nearly all ÐÓ°ÉÔ´´ students receive some level of financial aid. Please visit our Financial Aid page to learn more.
Net Price Calculator
You can also use the Net Price Calculator from the US Department of Education, customized for the ÐÓ°ÉÔ´´, to help get a basic estimate as to what aid you may receive, based on your financial need. Please note, this estimate applies only to undergraduate FAFSA filers and is based on data from the 2022-23 academic year. While this calculator focuses on financial need, it’s important to remember that ÐÓ°ÉÔ´´â€™s scholarships are merit-based and need-informed. Since merit-based awards are determined through auditions, the Net Price Calculator cannot account for them.
