Welcome to Peabody’s Net Price Calculator. This tool is designed to give first-time, full-time undergraduates an estimate of what it may cost to attend a year at Peabody. Results will factor aid from all applicable federal, state and institutional sources. Please note that our calculator will only produce an estimate of costs, as scholarships at Peabody have a merit component that will vary with each individual. The calculator is not an application for financial aid and is not a guarantee of scholarship or other funding. Students who expect to enroll in the Peabody/JHU Double Degree Program will not receive financial aid from Peabody and should not use this calculator. Instead please use the Krieger School of Arts and Sciences/Whiting School of Engineering Net Price Calculator.
Our Financial Aid advisors are here to guide you through the process from beginning to end. We can answer questions, provide assistance with your application, and walk you through the types of financial aid available.
Peabody gives careful consideration to financial aid packages for admitted students based on the strength of the application, the audition, the interview, and the unmet need presented on the student’s FAFSA/CSS Profile. If there are additional circumstances that you would like Peabody to consider due to affordability concerns, contact the Financial Aid Office for more information.
