Cost of Attendance
Our office estimates a standard cost of attendance (or budget) for all students based on their undergraduate/graduate status, residency, level of enrollment (e.g., full-time, half-time, etc.), and, in some cases, academic program.
Budgets are determined by adding the appropriate figures for tuition and mandatory fees to estimates for room and board, books and supplies, transportation, and personal (miscellaneous) expenses.
Below are examples of a few types of budgets, shown for the full academic year (fall and spring semesters); one-semester costs can be calculated by dividing the figures in half.

|---|---|---|
| Room and Board | $7,580 | $7,580 |
| Books and Supplies | 792 | 792 |
| Transportation | 800 | 800 |
