Estimated Penn State 2009-10 First-Year Undergraduate Costs
Penn State makes every effort to contain costs and has been recognized nationally for its cost efficiency. However, you can anticipate that costs will increase on an annual basis. To assist you with the planning for a Penn State education, we have projected ESTIMATED costs for the 2009-10 academic year for ***undergraduate students who will start their first year in 2009-10***. Please use these cost estimates for planning purposes only. They are based on the budget Penn State anticipates submitting to the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania for 2009-10. Final tuition and fees will be determined by the Board of Trustees in July, 2009, following approval of the University's state appropriation by the Commonwealth.
