Cost Attendance/Tuition and Fees
A student's cost of attendance (COA) is established solely for use in calculating federal financial aid eligibility and awarding financial aid, for a specific period of enrollment. The college uses estimated monthly living expenses, and an average cost of tuition, electronic course materials, and books. The Tuition and Fee schedule can be located in the College Catalog. The total cost of attendance information is available on request from the Financial Aid department.
The Net Price Calculator is a tool that can be used to calculate the cost of attendance for specific programs.
