The estimated cost to attend Texas A&M for 2021-2022 is approximately $31,476 for in-state residents, which includes tuition and fees, housing & food, books, transportation, and miscellaneous expenses.
Texas A&M offers over $933 million in financial assistance each year, which means many students’ out-of-pocket costs are much lower than the published cost of attendance. In fact, last year a student with a family income under $40,000 had an average out-of-pocket cost of about $11,135, and a student with a family income between $40,000 and $80,000 had an average out-of-pocket cost of about $13,317.
Applying for financial assistance may provide the additional resources necessary to cover out-of-pocket costs.
