The Cost of Attendance is calculated to create the maximum amount of aid a student might need. Very few students will need the maximum amount of aid created within the indirect cost category. We will package all students at Direct Cost and work with you one-on-one for your indirect costs.
Estimating Cost
The Net Price Calculator is a way for you to gauge the impact of the various types of aid. It can be used at any time during the process, however, it is most accurate after filing the FAFSA.
