Estimated 2026-2027 Cost of Attendance Budget

Federal Cost of Attendance (COA) is the estimated total cost of attending school for one academic year. It includes both direct costs, such as tuition and fees, and indirect costs, such as books, supplies, housing, food, transportation, and personal expenses. Schools use the Cost of Attendance to determine a student's eligibility for federal financial aid.
