Stanford University sets tuition rates for all students. These estimates include Stanford's per-unit tuition of $1,372 per unit, the Application Fee, Program Fee, the Campus Health Services fee, and a Document Fee*. Where applicable, estimates also include residential and meal fees. A very limited number of tuition grants may be available to undergraduate and graduate students only.
