Tuition for the 2012-13 school year at Kimball Union was $47,830 for boarding students and $29,995 for day, commuting, students. For residents, the fee includes room, board, use of all facilities, and admission to some plays, lectures, and concerts held on campus. Charges beyond the basic fee include those for books, athletics store purchases, some arts events and transportation. An initial deposit of 10 percent of tuition is requested upon confirmation of enrollment, with the balance due on August 1 and January 1. Loan plans and tuition-refund insurance are available.
Kimball Union accepts students without regard to their ability to pay and then attempts to present the family with a financial aid package to make attendance possible. Kimball Union awards financial aid based strictly on financial need as determined by the School and Student Service for Financial Aid of Princeton, New Jersey.
