Cost of Attendance
Our office estimates a standard cost of attendance (or budget) for all students based on their undergraduate/graduate status, residency, level of enrollment (e.g., full-time, half-time, etc.), and, in some cases, academic program. Students may not receive aid in excess of their estimated cost of attendance.
Budgets are determined by adding the appropriate figures for tuition and mandatory fees to estimates for room and board, books and supplies, transportation, and personal (miscellaneous) expenses.
Below are examples of a few types of budgets, shown for the full academic year (fall and spring semesters); one-semester costs can be calculated by dividing the figures in half. The Tuition & Fees portion are based on fulltime enrollment, each semester (12-17 credits for undergraduate and 8 credits for graduate students).
| Resident | Non-Resident | |
|---|---|---|
| Tuition & Fees | $9,524 | $29,540 |
| Room & Board * | $8,520 | $8,520 |
| Total Direct Costs | $18,044 | $38,060 |
| Books & Supplies * | $824 | $824 |
| Transportation * | $834 | $834 |
| Personal * | $2,448 | $2,448 |
| Total Cost of Attendance | $22,150 | $42,166 |
*These are averages and actual costs can vary by student based on student choice and travel habits.
Our office uses different budgets for undergraduate students attending less than full time and undergraduate students living with their parents. Students can view their specific budgets on OneStart in the Student Self-Service 'Student Center' section.
