How much will my medical education cost?
Tuition, fees and expenses comprise the cost of attendance of medical school at HMS. Our MD program provides two curricular tracks, Pathways and Health Sciences & Technology (HST). Cost of Attendance is listed by track and is arranged by year.
The student budget has two primary purposes:
- To give students an estimate of reasonable costs of attendance
- To establish the federally required uniform cost of attendance standard against which to measure financial need
The cost of attendance tables below provide general information. Refer to the Cost of Attendance Determinations page for detailed information on tuition, fees and expenses.
