How Much Will It Cost to Attend UIndy?

Graduate Student Expense Budget

As a graduate student, your financial planning should include consideration for tuition expense, which is typically the primary billable or direct charge you will incur from the University of Indianapolis. It should also include an evaluation of your indirect living expenses that may impact your ability to pay for your college education. The combined total of these direct and indirect expenses is referred to as your Cost of Attendance (COA). A student's COA, or expense budget for one academic year, is made up of five principle parts:

• Tuition (your bill)
• Room and Board (generally reflects off-campus living for a graduate student)
• Books and Supplies
• Transportation
• Miscellaneous Fees

When the Office of Financial Aid calculates your expense budget, your cost per credit hour multiplied by the number of credit hours you plan to attend, will create the tuition and fee component of your budget. Estimates for room and board, books and supplies, transportation and miscellaneous fees will also be included in your budget. 

Helpful Tip:  You may be awarded aid to cover your tuition expense (your bill) as well as a portion or all of the indirect expenses detailed within your individual student budget.
