Expense Budget


The student expense budget is also known as the Cost of Attendance (COA).  It is the projection of reasonable costs that a school deems as necessary to attend school for an academic year (fall and spring).  It reflects the actual tuition and fees (direct expenses)  and estimates the necessary living expenses (indirect expenses).  This budget or COA will change every year.
