§ Estimate
The Cost of Attendance (COA) is an estimate of educational expenses for the nine-month academic year. Federal law limits COA allowances to the amounts necessary to cover institutional charges and a student lifestyle and may vary from actual costs. It should be noted that the housing allowance assumes a shared accommodation.
In determining how best to cover expenses, consider the budget in its entirety with thought of adjusting expenses in one category to meet costs that may be higher in another. While the cost of attendance cannot be increased to meet obligations beyond those specified, consideration may be given to documented unusual or unexpected expenses.
The standard cost of attendance is the maximum amount of aid permitted from all sources during the school year. For financial aid purposes the full-time budget applies to enrollment in 12-17 credits; per credit hour rate of $1,638 applies to part-time enrollment up to 11 hours. Enrollment in six credit hours per semester is required for financial aid.
