Estimated Indirect Charges (not billed)

  • This budget is based on a moderate cost of living in the Cambridge area.
  • The housing portion of the budget assumes shared occupancy of a two-bedroom unit in the surrounding community.
  • Married students and students with dependents should anticipate higher living expenses.
  • The standard living expense budget is added to the Harvard Divinity School cost of tuition and fees to determine a student's total cost of education.
  • Financial aid funds are not intended to supplement expenses of family members; however, there are some exceptions that can be made to increase the budget, including dependent care costs and rent.
  • Please note that eligibility for institutional and federal funds requires that a single student budget be used, as federal funds are generally reserved for expenses that the individual student incurs for the educational program.
