Cost Estimates

Cost of attendance (COA) is the estimated amount it will cost to attend college each year.  The COA includes estimated enrollment fees, room and board, book allowances, supplies, transportation, etc. 

Based on the information you and your family provided on the financial aid application, a Financial Aid Specialist will be able to determine your financial aid eligibility using both your COA and your Student Aid Index (SAI). The SAI is based on the information you provided on your financial aid application.  For federal aid, you must demonstrate need.

Need is the difference between the Cost of Attendance (COA) and your student aid index (SAI). 

 COA - SAI = Need

Please see our Current Fees page for the most up-to-date information on tuition and fees. Cost estimates are based on student enrollment of 15 units (each Fall, Spring term).
