Description of Fees:

  • 1 - Mandatory fees for Storrs students.
  • 2 - The housing charge is based on a standard double which is what most incoming students receive. The amount reported is the 2025-2026 rate.
  • 3 - The meal plan is based on the Value meal plan.
  • 4 - All full-time students are required to be covered by health insurance. Students are therefore automatically billed for the University's health insurance plan every Fall. If the student is already covered, they can waive the health insurance fee in their Student Administration account. For specific information regarding the University health insurance plan, please visit the Student Health Services website. Amount reported is the 2024-2025 rate.
  • 5 - Husky Book Bundle: Through a partnership with the UConn Bookstore, full-time undergraduate students will be able to rent all required course materials for a flat fee of $285 per semester. This is an opt-out program, and the charge will be automatically included on students’ semester tuition fee bill. The waiver to opt-out will open 30 days prior to the start of the semester and remain open through the 10th day of classes. Students are encouraged to delay opting-out until they receive all course syllabi and required materials to then determine if the program is financially beneficial.
