Tuition, Cost & Aid
Affordability and Cost
Average Net Price Average net price for full-time, first-time degree/certificate-seeking undergraduates paying the in-state or in-district tuition rate who were awarded grant or scholarship aid from federal, state or local governments, or the institution. Other sources of grant aid are excluded. Aid awarded anytime during the full aid year is included.
Average net price is generated by subtracting the average amount of federal, state or local government, or institutional grant and scholarship aid from the total cost of attendance. Total cost of attendance is the sum of published tuition and required fees (lower of in-district or in-state), books and supplies and the weighted average room and board and other expenses.

What Students Are Saying
It is definitely worth it! Every last cent is worth it. I have payed out of my pocket some amounts and it does not hurt me at all to pay for college with my earnings because I love it!
Lucia from Los Angeles, CA
Yes, even though it is expensive it is worth it. With your room and board you get an 80 dollar food allowance in the cafeteria. You get free tutoring, you can print papers, lecture notes, and personal items in the PC lab for free no charge. You have an online website called angel where you can see your lecture notes , and your grade. Some classes have online quizzes. The Psychological department you get free meetings with them up to 10 times. The library is wonderful with the study rooms. It is worth it.
Sayra from Whittier, CA
If you want a good education, then Mount St Mary's College is the place. You receive a good education that will apply to any major of your choice. The Mount produces successful and great adults who can enter the work force with knowledge, experience, and social skills. It is worth the money, every single cent.
Nicolette from Diamond Bar, CA
School is pricey, but it can be worth it if you make it worth it.
I'm like most of you, poor out of my mind, but the Mount offers work-study that can help you out and scholarships. I've made great friends to make up for the amount of money my parents are spending for my tuition.

you have the opportunities to make your own experience. ever heard the phrase, life is what you make of it? well this idiom is a copy of that, you have the choice to make what you choose to attend a pleasant experience.
Carolina from Chula Vista, CA
I do have to say that this college is pricey but it is worth every cent. I am very pleased of going here. I honestly do not see myself at another college. But if you decide to go here make sure that if your major is what you really want, especially for nursing students. The nursing program is very competitive. It will be sad if all of your hard work and money goes down the drain because you want to change majors. I had a difficult time my first semester of school. For that reason, on my second semester i dedicated myself to school only. Once i received my acceptance for the nursing program I knew that all that work and money was worth it.
Cindy from Sun Valley, CA
MSMC is pricey. As I said above though, there are tons of activities to get involved in and class sizes are small and you will get a lot of personal attention.
Megan from Los Angeles, CA
I would wish that all the students start applying to scholarships because it's very hard getting additional help from the school.

Rent your books if you can. I recommend Chegg.com
