Cost of Attendance

Cost of Attendance (COA) is the Office of Student Financial Aid Services estimate of your educational expenses for the 2009-2010 academic year. Your financial need is determined by subtracting your Expected Family Contribution (EFC) from your COA. Based on your enrollment, you will be billed each semester by the Office of Student Account Services for tuition and fees and if applicable for on-campus housing.

Costs such as books, off-campus housing, transportation and miscellaneous personal expenses are estimated to establish your COA and to help you and your family plan for the overall cost of an IUPUI education.

Your COA includes the following categories:

Tuition and Fees

Tuition and fees are average estimates based on whether or not you are enrolled at least half-time. However, the Office of Student Account Services will calculate your actual tuition and fees based on the number of credits you enroll in for each semester.

Books and Supplies

Books and Supplies are estimated based on an average cost for textbooks and related supplies based on your enrollment.

Room and Board

Room and Board costs are estimated based on the housing option you reported on the FAFSA. 

Transportation

Transportation is estimated based on U.S. Department of Labor Bureau of Labor Statistics data.

Personal/Miscellaneous

Miscellaneous costs are estimated based on your clothing, recreation, medical and dental costs, and life insurance and health insurance.


Note: For students attending less than half time (less than 6 hours for undergraduate students; less than 4 hours for graduate students), your COA does not include Transportation, Room and Board, and Miscellaneous expenses.
