COST OF ATTENDANCE

How Much Will It Cost?

The cost of attendance (COA) is an estimate of what it costs the typical student to attend Northwest State Community College and is used to determine how much Financial Aid a student is eligible for. Your cost of attendance (COA) doesn’t just cover your college tuition; it takes into account your basic living expenses too. It is important for you to budget and make wise decisions regarding how to utilize the financial aid funds you receive. Students are not allowed to receive aid that exceeds their cost of attendance.

 

Tuition and Fees

The full time tuition for a traditional student is based on the weighted average of tuition paid by student’s in-class and on-line. The average for fees was taken directly from the programs as stated in our catalog or other documentation provided from the programs. The average costs were rounded in order to achieve the figures.

 

Room and Board

This includes a reasonable estimate of costs for rent, phone, and food. These amounts were based from the results of the College Boards 2021-2022 Living Expense Budget survey.

 

Books and Supplies

This is the average cost of books and supplies for a typical student for an entire academic year. Typically, this includes books, educational supplies, and course materials. The average costs were rounded in order to achieve the figures

 

Transportation/Online

This represents the cost of travel to and from the college campus. Northwest State students travel, on average, 30 miles a day to come to school. We base the travel rate in accordance to the Ohio Mileage Rate each year

 

Other Expenses
