Tuition and Fees
Please view the University
Tuition information for program costs.
The University administration reserves the right, whenever
advisable, to change or modify its schedule of tuition and fees.

level.
Scholarships
Scholarship awards are competitive and are made on the basis of
scholastic achievement, need, and evidence of leadership, work
experience and other personal characteristics that may add value to
the academic and social atmosphere at STJ. The majority of
scholarships cover 25% tuition. They are generally given to full
time students for a period of one year. To be considered for a
scholarship, you must include an additional letter with your
application material stating your interest in being considered as a
candidate. Students holding tuition scholarships are required to
pay the general fees and any other fees required for the courses
they are taking.
U.S. Federal Loans for American
Citizens
American students who are interested in studying in Rome are
eligible to apply for federal graduate loans in the U.S. This
process should be started in January and can be started prior to
receiving an acceptance to St. John's University. The University
deadline for filing the FAFSA is Feb. 1 each year.
The following is a brief description of the financial aid
application process:
- First, students must fill out a FAFSA form, this may be done
on-line. You must include the SJU Title IV Code: 002823.
- The U.S. government will automatically notify STJ that you have
filed for loans. You should receive a copy of the form you filed in
the mail, you will be asked to confirm that all the information is
correct and to mail it back to the U.S. government agency.
- Once you are admitted to St. John's and the university has
received your FAFSA (this comes from the U.S. agency), the
university will process your loan request.
- St. John's will send you a package and a financial letter. Then
you will have to complete the necessary forms provided by the
financial aid office and return them via mail to the
university.
Graduate Assistantships

currently matriculated students who are present at the Rome campus.

achievement. Full and half tuition remission for up to 4 classes
per semester is awarded and all students must maintain a full time
study program. Their renewal, contingent on satisfactory work, is
