Cost of Attendance for 2013-2014

The Cost of Attendance (COA) is an average numeric amount used to determine your maximum financial aid eligibility for an academic year. The COA consists of standard school expenses (tuition, fees, books) and an estimate of a student's standard living expenses (housing, food, transportation, and other miscellaneous expenses).

Each student's financial needs are different, so the estimated COA may be less depending on the student's circumstances.  It is recommended that the student create their own budget to calculate what is needed as long as it does not exceed the COA. Students are surveyed every other year regarding the Cost of Attendance.

Tuition charges may be expected to increase on an annual basis as higher education continues to experience cost increases.  Historically tuiton has inceased between two to six percent.  Please note, tuition is based on sixteen units per term/semester.
