Tuition & Costs

The Cost of Attendance (COA) is an estimated total cost of attending an institution for one academic year. While this estimate is for one year (two semesters) we recommend you create a financial plan for the entire time it will take you to complete your degree. Note: Costs listed are based on two semesters of full time enrollment unless otherwise stated.

Direct Costs (Costs Payable to the Institution)

Includes only items payable directly to the school.

Undergraduate students who take fewer than 12 credits in a semester will be charged per credit ($1,383) rather than the flat full-time rate. Undergraduate students who overload (take more than 20 credits in a semester) will be charged at the per credit rate ($1,383) for each credit over 20.

Undergraduate students are required to live on campus their first two years unless granted a waiver by the Housing and Accessibility offices. For off-campus expenses for housing we estimate $15,214 per year and food expenses of $6,607 per year. If living off-campus with family, we estimate housing expenses at $2,200 per year and food expenses of $6,607 per year.

The health insurance charge can be waived. Waiver deadlines apply. Visit Health Insurance for more information.
