Cost of Attendance

2022 – 2023 Award Calculation and Financial Aid Cost of Attendance Budgets

To determine Financial Need, the Student Finance Office calculates the student’s Cost of Attendance (COA) and subtracts from that amount the Expected Family Contribution (EFC). To determine need for aid from State and Federal Programs, the school must first consider other Resources or Additional Financial Assistance the student expects to receive.

Terms Defined

Academic Year. 9 month (Fall & Spring)

Cost of Attendance (COA). The COA is determined by the school, using guidelines established by federal law and bi-annual student surveys. It includes direct expenses (tuition, fees, loan fees, books & supplies) and indirect expenses (room/board, transportation, miscellaneous expenses).

Expected Family Contributions (EFC). The student’s household and financial information [derived from the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA)] is how the EFC is calculated.  The EFC is not the amount of money your family must provide.  Rather, it is an index the College of Nursing uses to determine how much financial aid you would be eligible to receive if you were to attend our college. The student’s EFC may be found on the top right hand corner of the Student Aid Report as well as on the Financial Aid Award Letter.

Financial Need. The difference between the student’s Cost of Attendance (COA) and the Expected Family Contribution (EFC).

Resources or Additional Financial Assistance. The amount (may be estimated) of financial assistance the student is to receive from federal, state, school, scholarships or other sources (as defined by regulations). The school must consider available resources when determining the student’s eligibility for need based assistance (including loan programs).
