For 2026 to 2027, a new nonresident international undergraduate student in a standard program pays 16,052 dollars a semester, 32,104 dollars for the year. That total is made up of a general service fee, nonresident tuition, a separate international student tuition charge, and the student fitness, wellness and activity fees. Students in engineering, computer science, data science, artificial intelligence or the Mitch Daniels School of Business pay an additional differential fee on top of this, which rises by 1,000 dollars a semester for students who first enroll in fall 2026 or later. Room and board at West Lafayette averages around 13,720 dollars a year. None of these figures include books, health insurance or personal spending money.
