The Cost of Attendance (COA) is determined by a student's program type, enrollment, residency status, and living arrangement. The COA includes both direct (billed) and indirect (not billed) costs associated with a student's program. The COA also dictates the maximum amount of financial aid a student can receive for an academic year. Students can view their Cost of Attendance by logging into SURFS, navigating to the Financial Aid Dashboard, and selecting the Award Offer tab.
**The University Student Financial Aid office is obligated by federal regulation to ensure that students are not receiving aid that exceeds their total cost of attendance. University Student Financial Aid reserves the right to make necessary adjustments to offered and/or disbursed financial aid due to changes in the student’s enrollment, residency reclassification, or receipt of additional funding.**
