ECPS Survey of Undergraduates finds funding and tuition should be the top priority

A recent survey by the Emerson College Polling Society reveals that 62 percent of the undergraduate student body believes funding and tuition should be the top priority for incoming President Jay M. Bernhardt. The survey was conducted from March 27 through April 24, 2023, consisting of 371 undergraduate students at Emerson College.

The college announced on April 14 that undergraduate costs of attendance are set to increase by four percent for the 2023-24 academic year. The increase will bring tuition up to $54,379 and single room and board up to $20,829. Combined, full-time Emerson students in a single room will be expected to pay $75,208 per academic year—a difference of $2,892.
