Tuition and Financial Aid

Pace is more affordable than you think—it may even be as affordable as some state schools. Our goal is to offer every student as much financial assistance as possible, based upon availability and need. All admitted students are considered for every available option, including scholarships, grants, on-campus employment, and loans. Plus, high-achieving students are considered for a broad range of merit-based scholarships.
