Veteran Shopping Sheet

Veteran Shopping Sheet and Military Financial Plan

The Veteran Shopping Sheet is a consumer tool that students and parents can use to make comparisons of Costs and Aid offers from different institutions. Using a basic format, the sheet presents information about your available financial aid, net costs, and how much you should expect to pay out-of-pocket. This information should be used to help you compare financial aid packages offered by different institutions. The shopping sheet generates figures that are estimates only. All tuition rates and fees are subject to change without notice. It is intended to help you compare aid offers from different schools based on your "Estimated Net Cost" after grants/scholarships. Please understand that the Shopping Sheet is not a bill.

At Morgan State University (MSU), the Office of Financial Aid will make available to all Veteran consumers information that's reported on the Shopping Sheet as Direct Costs that a student will incur.

**To estimate the overall cost to include your Department of Veterans Affairs VA Educational Benefits, or to get an estimate of your anticipated Department of Defense allotments you can use the "Interactive VA MSU Direct Campus Costs/Resources Worksheet".

All Student Veterans are encouraged to view their Shopping Sheets again after the bills are disseminated by the Bursar's Office to ensure that the billing statements correlate with the actual billing indicated in the system.  To determine the current rates of tuition & fees, as well as the billing schedule and refund process go to https://www.morgan.edu/bursar.

A student's Cost of Attendance (COA) total will always be much higher than a student's Direct Cost to the institution because the COA consists of indirect cost items such as personal allowance, travel expenses, books, and supplies. Therefore, when students are making cost comparisons you will need to compare the Direct Costs reported on the Shopping Sheet from different institutions.

The cost of health insurance changes from academic year to academic year. The information provided on the current shopping sheet may reflect a previous year's cost and is being provided solely as an estimate.

After you are accepted to the university, have identified yourself as a veteran/dependent, and Morgan State University has received the results of your FAFSA, you will have access to a personalized Shopping Sheet which will be located within your WEBSIS account for viewing.
