Affordability and value of a Clark University education.
Clark is committed to making our exceptional educational experience affordable. Welcoming students of all income levels is at the very heart of who we are. When financial aid is factored in, many students are surprised to find that the cost of attending Clark is comparable to or less than that of a state school. And with Clark’s accelerated degree program, eligible students can earn both a bachelor’s and a master’s degree in five years — with the fifth year tuition-free.
