Cost of Attendance for Graduate Students

The estimated Financial Aid Cost of Attendance (COA) budget figures are intended to provide estimated allowances for educationally-related expenses for a specific period of enrollment, as required by Federal Aid regulations. The ¸»¶þ´úÊÓƵ uses this COA budget to determine financial aid options and the total amount of financial aid offered can not exceed the COA budget for that enrollment period.

These figures are estimates and your actual costs may differ. Students with expenses not reflected in the COA budget may contact the Financial Aid Office to determine if an increase is appropriate. See Expense Category Details to understand the basis of the estimates.
