Gateway Tuition Program

Making College Affordable

At Saint Peter’s University, we are committed to providing you with an exceptional and affordable college experience. It’s our goal to provide access to higher education, and in response to the needs of our diverse student population, we are proud to announce the launch of our Gateway Tuition Program.  Freshmen enrolling for the fall 2021 semester will be the first class to experience the difference in college affordability.

Our Gateway Tuition Program is designed to provide students with a ZERO tuition experience (tuition, comprehensive fees and new student orientation fee). If your family’s Expected Family Contribution (EFC) is $5,846 or less (as calculated from the FAFSA) you could qualify for the program.

 

New Jersey residents* who are Pell-eligible and have filed a FAFSA form (including completing the verification process), and who are enrolled full-time in one of our undergraduate bachelor degree programs will benefit from this financial aid opportunity. You can attend Saint Peter’s without having to contribute to tuition, comprehensive and orientation fees by maximizing the use of institutional, state and federal scholarships and grants.

* Must be a legal New Jersey resident, residing in-state for 12 consecutive months prior to enrollment.

"Saint Peter’s is known for transforming students’ lives through expanded access to higher education. We’re making sure that the opportunity for a college education is more affordable. Finances should not hold a student back from achieving their dream."

Eugene J. Cornacchia, Ph.D.,

Paying for Your Education

For many families, affording college means choosing a reasonably priced school and using various forms of financial aid including loans and payment plans to help create a plan to pay for your education. At Saint Peter’s University, we are removing these barriers and making your college experience affordable.
