It is important for you to understand that the information you receive from the calculator is a broad estimate. Many factors come into play when we award financial aid to students including, but not limited to: deadlines, levels of funding, grade levels, and academics. It is also important to note that the net price calculator does not incorporate Federal Stafford Loans into its financial aid calculations. Students who file a FAFSA are eligible for low interest, deferred loans through the Federal Direct Lending Program. The loan amounts students are offered vary based on a student's dependency status and grade level in school.
For alternative loans and general financial aid awarding, the financial aid office creates a cost of attendance estimate for all students. This cost of attendance includes tuition, fees, room and board as well as transportation, supplies and miscellaneous expenses. The cost of attendance is the average cost based on direct to college expenses as well a regional norms.
