Tuition, housing, food, books & other expenses, after grants · 2023–24
Housing and food use the college's on-campus rates, so the estimate runs high where many students live at home. “Other expenses” is the college's estimate of personal and transportation costs. Loans aren't subtracted because they're repaid.

From University of Baltimore's Common Data Set
First-years and all full-time undergraduates, 2022–23, a year before the federal figures above.
| First-years | All full-time | |
|---|---|---|
| Have financial need | 79%548 students | – |
| Need met, on average | 44% | – |
| Need fully met | 2% | – |
| Average aid package | $11,844 | – |
| Average need-based grant | $9,555 | – |
| Average need-based loan | $3,568 | – |
Each college decides what a family needs, so “100% of need met” can mean different prices at different colleges. Merit awards that went toward a student's need count as need-based here.
