Private college details
Tuition + fees + room & board. Find on college website.
Use the college's Net Price Calculator for an estimate.
Estimates only — not official offers. SMCC & UMaine cost figures from 26/27 published data (SMCC room & board is still 25/26 — not yet published for 26/27); grant/aid estimates are based on the most recently available federal net-price data, not a live current-year figure. SMCC tuition is shown as $0 under Maine's Free College Scholarship, which pays whatever tuition is left after Pell and the Maine State Grant are applied; fees, room & board, books, and other costs are still billed and are only offset if Pell/State Grant exceed tuition. Private college figures are family-entered estimates.
