Estimated Cost of Attendance 

The cost of attendance (COA) is based on the estimated cost of a typical student's tuition and fees, books and supplies, room and board, transportation, and personal expenses for a nine-month academic year (fall and spring semester). We’ll use the COA to help determine your financial aid eligibility.
