EU Room and Board Expenses

Housing and dining plans are priced out separately at EU. The standard student spent $6,136 for housing and $5,400 for dining in 2020.

The following table outlines expected prices at Eastern University both for on-campus and off-campus housing, dining plans as well as other charges.

Over 4 Years You Could Pay About $68,684 for Housing, Food and Other Stuff

There has been an average 0.7% cost adjustment annually for the past five years in EU housing and dining costs, compared to a nationwide average change of 2.4%. If existing developments in room, board, and other expenses go on, we expect incoming freshman students in 2021 to be charged about $16,866 for their first year of college. By their last year an undergraduate might spend somewhere around $17,067 for an associate degree, and $17,479 for a four-year degree.

The entire degree (assuming you graduate on-time) the total will be close to $68,684 for four years or $33,933 for a two-year stay.

Are you wondering whether you may be required to live on campus? If you are a first-time full-time student, some schools may require it. See the table below to find out whether EU does or not, as well as the on-campus housing capacity.

Schools may offer meal plans where the number of meals per week can vary, for example, the student receives a meal card and charges meals against the card. Then there are schools like EU that offer meal plans based on the number of meals per week. See the table below to find out the number of meals per week in the maximum meal plan offered at EU.
