Cost of Attendance (COA)
The Cost of Attendance is an estimate of the total amount of the students’ educational expenses during the Award Year. Sometimes it is referred to as a student budget and is used in the preparation of the total financial aid offer.
The above information is based upon an independent student enrolled online in semester-length courses for both the fall ‘23 and spring ‘24 terms.
The cost of attendance is made up of costs such as tuition, fees, books, supplies and equipment, housing and food, transportation, personal expenses, and loan origination fee. Students awarded a federal loan(s) have an average loan fee added to their COA.
The estimated price of attendance may change if the student's schedule or dependency status differs.
Please contact the Financial Aid office:
- If you are taking Preparatory Course Work for Doctor of Ministry Program.
- If you have dependent care expenses, disability-related expenses.
