2026/27 · Same rate for all undergraduates · All students — no separate international rate

Caltech charges international and domestic undergraduates the same tuition: the Institute publishes a single undergraduate rate and no separate international rate exists, so this is an institution-wide figure that applies to all students rather than a price for this specific option. Published as a nine-month, full academic-year figure. Caltech's academic year runs on three terms (fall, winter, spring) and the catalog states that tuition, fees, housing and food are divided evenly between them; the annual figure is recorded here as published and has not been converted to a per-term rate. Not included: mandatory fees of $2,655, housing $12,711 and food/meals $9,285, a one-time $600 Orientation Fee for entering undergraduates, and the Caltech Student Health Insurance Plan (waivable with comparable coverage). Financial aid for international undergraduates (verified on caltech.edu): admissions is need-blind for domestic students but need-aware for international students because the international aid fund is limited (www.admissions.caltech.edu/afford); international students must apply for aid as an incoming first-year or they may not apply in later years, no aid is available to international transfer or 3/2 entrants, and international students are not eligible for US Federal Student Aid (www.finaid.caltech.edu/applying/international-students).
