Undergraduate Tuition and Fees

We are committed to making Converse accessible to any young woman qualified to enroll. Our generous scholarships and financial aid provide that accessibility. More than 90% of our students receive financial aid, and Converse students are much more likely to graduate in four years than their peers at public institutions, thus saving their families an additional year or more of tuition and fees. That kind of real cost comparison proves a Converse education can be less expensive in the end—not to mention a better value.
