Costs of Attendance

The Office of Financial Aid establishes standard student budgets each year as a basis for awarding financial aid funds. The total amount of financial aid you can receive is limited by your financial aid budget — an average of costs based on residency (in-state or out of state), type of program, and other factors. The costs taken into consideration in the budget include tuition, fees, housing and meals, books, supplies, medical expenses, transportation, and personal expenses. Direct charges include tuition, fees, room and board. Indrect charges include books, transportation, medical expenses, and personal expenses. While actual expenses will vary based on your lifestyle and level of enrollment, the estimated costs listed below should assist you in planning your own budget.

Fees: The current fee schedule can be found in the Student Handbook.

Books: The cost of books and supplies for Health Related Professions, Nursing, Graduate, and Medical students was based on a list(s) of books and supplies and the expertise of the Bookstore.

Average estimated costs for the following categories are available.

Please note: Every effort was made to reflect realistic costs which students might incur. If you feel you have special circumstances not covered in your budget, you may file a Petition for Consideration of Exception to Financial Aid Policy. This form may be found in the Office of Financial Aid. However, a budget increase does not qualify you for an increase in aid, other than loans.
