Cost of Attendance
Federal law requires all students to calculate an estimated average Cost of Attendance (COA/budget) for an academic year (Fall/Spring). The COA is not the actual price you will pay, but rather an estimate of what it might cost to attend, live, and have basic necessities while attending.

- The tuition and fee amounts are based on fifteen (15) hours per semester for Undergraduate students and six (6) hours for Graduate students. However, twelve (12) hours is considered full-time for most financial aid programs. For specific tuition and fee expenses per hour, please use the Tuition & Fee Calculator.
- On-campus Room & Board information (including Meal Plan) is available here.
- Most textbook expenses are included in the student's fees. For more information, please contact Textbook Services.
- Supply, transportation, and personal expenses are based on an estimate the Office of Student Financial Aid prepares annually. If a student's actual expense is more than what is budgeted, a student can request a Special Expense for a review.
Some programs may have different COAs, please reach out to Financial Aid for more information.
