1All entering students are charged a one-time $500 Orientation Fee in addition to the mandatory fees applicable to all undergraduate students. Please note that the fees do not include $2,088 -- $696 per Insurance Term -- for the Caltech/Aetna Student Health Insurance Plan. Effective with the class that will enter in September 2009, students will no longer be required to purchase the Institute's health insurance provided they have coverage through a comparable plan. For details about the student health insurance plan and the waiver/enrollment process, please go to the Aetna Student Health website. 2 The Housing/Room rate included in this estimated cost of attendance is a calculated expense based on the weighted average of all available undergraduate, on-campus housing options. 3A Travel Allowance to (partially) offset the cost of two roundtrips from a student's primary residence may be added to this estimated cost of attendance for U.S. Citizens or eligible non-citizens who reside in the U.S., associated U.S. territories, Canada, or Mexico.
