This calculator uses Whitman’s published tuition and fees for the 2026–2027 academic year and your family’s self-reported adjusted gross income (AGI). Your actual tuition is determined by the AGI reported on your FAFSA. The 10% Promise is guaranteed for four years of study at Whitman — your AGI may go up or down, but you’ll never pay more than 10% of your family’s AGI toward tuition.
