Cost of Attendance
Cost of Attendance (COA)
2023–2024 Academic Year
The federal government requires universities to estimate the average cost of attending college for one academic year. These estimates determine eligibility for financial aid and include average costs for:
- Tuition and fees
- Books, supplies, and equipment
- Housing and food
- Transportation (based on a reasonable geographic area)
- Basic personal expenses
- Student loan fees
Actual student expenses may vary depending on personal lifestyle, course of study, and living arrangements.
Special Circumstances
Adjustments to COA may be considered for:
- Childcare expenses while attending class
- Long-distance commuting costs
- Non-resident tuition
- Required computer/software purchases
- Nursing fees, clinicals, rotations, or practicums
Adjustments cannot be made for:
- Credit card payments
- Monthly bills or expensive rent
- Car purchases or leases
- Expenses related to family members
- Other discretionary costs
Tip: A simple lifestyle change can be the most effective budget strategy—cutting unnecessary spending is like awarding yourself a scholarship!
Estimated Cost of Attendance
Based on full-time enrollment (15 credit hours/semester for undergraduates, 9 for graduates)
