The cumulative gross sticker price for four years of undergraduate attendance at the College of Charleston—combining standard in-state tuition, mandatory general student fees, on-campus residence hall housing, and meal plans—totals roughly 100,000 to 120,000 dollars before financial aid. Out-of-state students face significantly higher non-resident instructional sticker prices, pushing the four-year gross total well past 180,000 dollars. However, many students qualify for institutional merit scholarships, state grants, and financial assistance that substantially lower out-of-pocket costs.
