University of Miami Tuition & Cost · 2026–27

Tuition & Fees $68,342 per year
Cost of Attendance $98,872 per year, estimated on-campus

Tuition & fees include the University of Miami's undergraduate tuition ($66,312) and required fees ($2,030). Cost of attendance is Miami's estimated total annual amount for an undergraduate living on campus, adding housing, meals, books, personal expenses, and transportation. These are Miami's current published 2026–27 figures.

But that's not necessarily what your family will pay.

Financial aid changes the price dramatically.

Every incoming first-year applicant at the University of Miami is automatically considered for merit scholarships — no separate application is required. Miami awards merit-based scholarships alongside need-based aid, and the two can be combined.

Some Premier Scholarships cover Full tuition

Miami's top academic merit awards cover the full cost of undergraduate tuition — the largest single line in Miami's published cost of attendance.

Select Premier awards cover The total cost of attendance

A limited number of Miami's top scholarships cover the full estimated cost of attendance — including housing, meals, books, and personal expenses.

But that still doesn't tell you what Miami will cost your family.

So what will the University of Miami cost your family?

Published prices don't answer that. Your number depends on the aid you receive, what your family can contribute, and how much is left to cover.

And if you need to borrow some of it?

The real cost of college isn't just the four years. It's what that borrowing could mean every month for the next 20 years.

About these numbers

Published tuition and cost of attendance shown at the top of this page are the University of Miami's 2026–27 published figures, as posted by the Office of Undergraduate Financial Assistance and Employment. Tuition is $66,312 and required fees are $2,030, for a combined $68,342 in direct tuition and fees. Cost of attendance is Miami's estimated total annual amount for an undergraduate living on campus, adding housing, meals, books, personal expenses, and transportation. Miami notes on its own source page that direct costs are finalized each spring by the Board of Trustees ahead of the fall semester, and that all figures for the upcoming academic year are preliminary and may change pending the Board's final approval. Off-campus and living-with-relative variants have their own published figures ($98,914 and $83,104 respectively). International students pay $104,091, which adds mandatory health insurance and a higher transportation allowance. Two specialized undergraduate programs are priced differently: the Bachelor of General Studies at $975 per credit and the Accelerated Bachelor of Science of Nursing at $14,240 per semester.

The financial aid statements shown in the section above are Miami's own current published aid information, as posted on Miami Undergraduate Admission's Miami Within Reach page and the Merit & Premier Scholarships FAQ. Miami awards both merit-based scholarships and need-based financial aid, and the two are distinct programs that can be combined. Merit scholarships are awarded at the time of admission through a holistic review of academic achievement, leadership, and other factors — no separate scholarship application is required. Miami's Premier Scholarships are the top tier of merit awards, with some covering the full cost of undergraduate tuition and select awards covering the full estimated cost of attendance; Premier Scholarship consideration requires application by November 1. Need-based financial aid is awarded through submission of the FAFSA and the CSS Profile. This page cites Miami's own current aid information rather than federal average net-price data because published federal net-price figures from third-party sources citing IPEDS have varied materially in their reported values for the University of Miami. Actual family costs vary based on the specific aid Miami offers and each family's specific financial situation.

The CollegeClearly estimator translates your family's specific cost into a standardized 20-year monthly financial commitment using CollegeClearly's own repayment model, applied identically to every school we cover so families can compare on the same basis. It is a comparison framework, not a specific loan product.
