How much can you expect to pay at Williams? When calculating financial aid packages we start with the total cost of attendance, including tuition, room and board and student fees. We also include the cost of traveling to and from home twice a year, plus required textbooks, art and lab supplies, and personal expenses like haircuts or a data plan for your phone.
We'll work with your family to determine what you can afford to contribute, and subtract that number from the cost of attendance to determine your family’s financial need.
Here's the simple formula: Cost of Attendance – Parent Contribution = Financial Need
Williams is committed to using the principles and standards of the
College Cost Transparency Initiative in its financial aid offers.

When Using the Calculators
For best results, please use the most accurate information available.
If your parents are divorced or separated, complete the calculator twice, once with each parent’s financial information, to estimate their expected contribution.
If either parent is self-employed, their tax-allowable losses and depreciations may not be considered in our financial aid calculations.
If your situation is unusual, please contact the Student Financial Services office to discuss unique circumstances. We can help you understand your options.
