Housing Options and Living Expenses

Located on Roosevelt Island, The House at Cornell Tech is steps away from Cornell Tech’s classrooms and collaboration spaces. Residents of The House enjoy high-end amenities and fully furnished apartments with a modern aesthetic. Please visit Residences at The House for more information about apartment options and costs. 

Cornell Tech’s total estimated cost of living (including dining and additional expenses) is $38,027 per year. 

Johnson Cornell Tech MBA students must additionally cover living expenses during their brief stay in Ithaca. For more information, please see Johnson’s Housing and Tuition & Expenses.

Student Health Insurance

All students are required to have health insurance that meets Cornell’s minimum requirements, and all students will be automatically enrolled in Cornell’s Student Health Plan (SHP). International students are required to be covered by the Cornell SHP. (Please visit Cornell Health’s International Students for more information about health care in the United States.) U.S. citizens and U.S. permanent residents can apply to waive out of the Cornell SHP if their insurance meets Cornell’s requirements.

Although we make every effort to inform students of changes in advance, the amount, time, and manner of payment of tuition, fees, or other charges may be changed at any time without notice. Please note that the average tuition increase per academic year is 3-5%.

Scholarships

Cornell Tech offers scholarship aid to a limited number of master’s degree students each year.  All scholarships at Cornell Tech are merit-based and determined by review of an applicant’s credentials at the time of their admission. All admitted students who are not fully sponsored are considered – no additional application is needed.

While it is not possible for Cornell Tech to offer full-tuition funding for master’s students, merit scholarships may cover a significant portion of tuition costs. Please note that scholarships cannot be applied to housing or costs other than tuition.

Need-based financial aid is not available from Cornell Tech, but students who are qualified for federal loans may contact Cornell Financial Aid for assistance in applying.  Specialized resources also exist for students enrolling in the Johnson Cornell Tech MBA through the Samuel Curtis Johnson Graduate School of Management.

Cornell Tech and the Jacobs Technion-Cornell Institute also offer a number of named scholarships and fellowships made possible through the generosity of partners and donors.  These awards are highly competitive and awarded by the admissions committee shortly after admission.
