Cost of Attendance

The Office of Financial Aid establishes estimated budgets also termed Cost of Attendance (COA) which are used to determine need and eligibility for financial aid awards.  The COA provides students and their families with a reasonable estimate of all costs. The COA Budget is an estimate of your educational and living expenses for one academic year (Fall & Spring Terms). The COA is established by combining the student’s Direct Costs and Indirect Expenses.

• Direct Costs:  Tuition, fees, on-campus/off-campus university-managed housing and meal plans, and Books*
• Indirect Expenses:  Supplies, personal and transportation expenses, and off-campus housing and meal costs

A student's total aid cannot exceed their COA budget. The student's actual bill will be much less than their COA budget because the student will only be billed for their Direct Costs. 

To help you determine overall costs for your Morgan experience, below you will find COA with the estimates used for books, transportation, and personal expenses in addition to known costs of tuition, fees, housing, and meals for the current different types of budget groups/types for students.

*Undergraduate students are automatically placed in the Bear Books Program. The Bear Books Program is a course materials fulfillment program that lowers the cost of course materials and ensures students have their required course materials on the first day of class. Students have the option to opt out of the program.
