The Northeast Regional Tuition Break Program
Northeast students now save more than $10,500 off the cost of out-of-state tuition.
We're proud to offer our regional neighbors from New England, New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania reduced tuition through the Northeast Regional Tuition Break Program. For years, UMass Boston has offered qualifying New England students discounted tuition rates through the New England Board of Higher Education’s Tuition Break program. As of the fall 2025 semester, we are pleased to extend the regional tuition break of more than $10,500 off the out-of-state tuition rate to new students who are residents of New York, New Jersey or Pennsylvania. Along with our generous financial aid and merit scholarships, the Northeast Regional Tuition Break puts a world-class education within your reach.
- Picture yourself in our modern on-campus residence halls, located steps from classes and public transportation, with sweeping views of the city skyline and Boston Harbor.
- Get access to the many internships, networks, and state-of-the-art facilities that the city’s only public research university provides.
- Boston is a hub for business, medicine, research, technology, and the arts. As a student you’ll be in the center of it all.
