How Much Does a Major in Sport Management Cost?

The sport management major helps students develop a highly marketable skill set in a rapidly growing field. It is enhanced by our AACSB-accredited Sport Management Department and a well-rounded liberal arts education, fostering career options in and out of the business of sports.

The full cost for the program is broken up into tuition and room and board.

Tuition for Sport Management Majors

Tuition covers the cost of all your classes, not just your sports management courses. For the 2021-2022 school year, the tuition for undergraduate students taking 12 to 17 credits is $47,808.00, (including a $100/semester student activity fee). Students who take fewer than 12 credits, pay $1,596 per credit.(If you want to take fewer than 12 credits per semester, you will need to be approved as a part-time student by the Office of Academic Services & Advising.)

Room and Board for Sport Management Majors

You need to live and eat while at college and that is covered by what is known as Room and Board. The cost for Room and Board during the 2021-2022 school year is $8,467 per semester. That amount breaks down to $7,092 for room and $1,375 for the meal plan.

At Stonehill, about 81% of students live on campus. The great part about living on campus is that it gives you the chance to meet students from all over the United States and around the world. You’ll be able to learn more about yourself as you come to know people from different backgrounds and cultural experiences — and that will help you grow and prepare you for life after college.

What type of accommodations are available for sport management majors? From traditional corridor-style halls to suites, townhouses and single-gender residence halls, there are options to suit nearly everyone's needs.

All of our residence halls are staffed by live-in professional Residence Directors (RDs) and paraprofessional Resident Assistants (RAs). Our trained RAs can help with almost every situation. They are closeby, if you are having difficulties, need information, have an idea for a hall activity, or just want to talk. Stonehill RAs want to get to know you and help you make the most of your on-campus experience.

When do I pay tuition and room & board?

A bill will be sent to you twice during the year. Half the annual costs for tuition, room and board are billed prior to the start of each semester.

• The fall bill is emailed in early July and payment is due by August 1.
• The spring bill is emailed in early December and payment is due by January 2.

What about financial aid?

The cost of a four-year college is expensive, but it’s important to know that most students do not pay the full amount at Stonehill. That’s because Stonehill has a generous financial aid program, and 98% of enrolled students receive some type of financial aid. 

In fact, during the 2021-2022 school year, Stonehill awarded a total of $85 million in financial aid. The average aid award for that year was $35,957 and consisted of scholarships, grants, loans and work-study. Among students eligible for need-based financial aid, 95% of need was met in 2021-2022 and of those students, 71% had 100% of their need met.

Program Outcomes

Higher education is an investment in your future — in the skills you will need to make a difference in the world. And a liberal arts education and a major in sport management is an investment worth thinking about. Ninety percent of Stonehill alumni who graduated in the past four years are employed, in top graduate programs, or engaged in postgraduate service within six months of graduating.
