Cost of Attendance

Financial Aid cost of attendance (COA), student budgets, are constructed using the following categories which are comprised of what is referred to as "direct educational costs" charged to all students and "indirect costs" which are the projected living expense costs based on the student's year in school and their program. Student budgets are reviewed each year.

Note: Budgets are subject to change. Students will receive their actual budgets when they receive their award notification. Students with special circumstances for unanticipated expenses (see the FA-Budget Adjustment Request Form for examples) can request a budget adjustment to their cost of attendance that may allow for additional federal loan borrowing eligibility.
