The estimated cost of attendance for 2013-14 is $56,750 and includes:

Tuition: $40,170
Room charge: $7,220
Board rate: $5,860
Estimated miscellaneous expenses: $3,500

The room charge and board rate are standard for University dormitories and meal plans.  Estimated miscellaneous expenses include the residential college fee, activities fees, class dues and a one-time transcript fee.  These items, totaling $915 of the $3,500 estimated books and personal expenses, are billed by the University along with tuition, room and board.  Financial aid credits are deducted from the University bill of $54,165 for those who qualify, leaving the remainder due as a family payment on either a semester or monthly basis.

This estimate does not include the cost of travel, which may range between $100 and $2,500. Students who are not covered by a family health insurance policy must purchase Student Health Plan coverage for $1,900. University charges are likely to increase modestly for 2014-15.
