Explanation of Costs

  • Direct Costs are the charges billed to the students by the university. These include tuition, fees, housing and food.
  • Total Cost of Attendance (COA) are the direct costs plus indirect costs. The financial aid office estimates indirect costs for items such as books, supplies, personal expenses and transportation. A student's financial aid package will reflect a combination of aid up to the Total Cost of Attendance.
  • Tuition is based on full-time attendance for three quarters (fall, winter & spring) and will vary if a student is less than full-time or in a self supporting program.
  • Fees include student activities fee, technology fee, and wellness fee.
  • Housing expenses can be reduced with room type, residential area, and meal plan choice
  • Additional Expenses: estimates for books and supplies, transportation and personal expenses are not billed by the university and will vary based on the student.
