    It can be very expensive to attend the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) for four years. Living expenses, tuition, and fees are all included in the overall cost. According to the academic year 2024–2025, MIT charges an undergraduate tuition of about $61,000 per year, plus an extra $2,200 in required fees. An additional $20,000 is usually spent on-campus living and eating, and between $83,000 to $85k is spent annually on books, supplies, personal expenses, and health insurance. In four years, that comes to about $330,000 to $340,000. MIT, however, provides substantial financial aid and is dedicated to affordability.

Both are very good but in different areas.  MIT is considered a better choice for STEM courses. Princeton University stands out for its UG Liberal Arts courses. MIT has a better global reputation. It ranks above Princeton in the world rankings given by Shiksha and QS World. Princeton ranks above MIT on a national level as part of US News rankings.

Both offer very similar chances of admission. Princeton acceptance rate is 4.6%. MIT's stands at 4.5%.

Students who have completed their 12 can enter MIT only if their academic record is excellent over the year. The MIT acceptance rate is 5%, as per an unofficial source. This shows they are extremely competitive during admission. After completing the 12th with excellent grades, students can apply for UG courses. They must fulfill the basic eligibility and requirements.
