Undergraduate Cost of Attendance 2024-2025
The cost of attendance (COA) for your program includes both direct expenses and indirect expenses for the combined fall 2024Â and spring 2025Â semesters.
The direct expenses are the items such as tuition or on-campus housing for which Â鶹´«Ã½ will bill you directly. The indirect expenses are items for which you may need to pay out of pocket such as off-campus rent, transportation, and books/supplies.
On campus housing is based on the higher of the average or median for the housing units available. Off campus housing and other indirect expenses are based on average costs in your area and may increase or decrease based on the cost of living at that time.
