Estimated Cost of Attendance - GEPN & MSN

The Cost of Attendance (COA) for Yale School of Nursing reflects the estimated expenses a student may incur during the academic year. It includes both direct, billed costs - such as tuition, program fees, and Yale Health coverage - and indirect, non-billed costs that can vary by individual circumstances.

Indirect costs are estimates of typical living expenses for YSN students, including housing, food, books and supplies, transportation, and personal expenses. While these costs are not charged by Yale, they are important to consider when planning your budget and determining financial aid eligibility. Your actual expenses may differ depending on your housing choices, travel needs, and personal spending habits.
