Two Tools to Estimate Costs

The Quick Cost Estimator provides a ballpark estimate of the cost of a ºìÌÒÊÓƵ education based on six simple questions. The Net Price Calculator provides a more detailed estimate of your college expenses, including your expected family contribution (EFC) and your eligibility for financial aid from ºìÌÒÊÓƵ. The formula is based on data from financial aid packages offered by ºìÌÒÊÓƵ last year. To get the most accurate estimate possible, you'll need to have a strong understanding of your family's financial situation.

Calculator findings in no way guarantee that, if accepted, you'll receive a set amount of funding in your first year or in subsequent years. These tools will give you a starting place to begin thinking and talking about the cost of attendance.
