How does the Office of Financial Aid determine my cost of attendance?
Your cost of attendance at Excelsior College is based on direct and indirect expenses. Direct educational expenses include tuition and either the enrollment or annual fee. Indirect costs such as books, room and board, and a technology allowance are also taken into account. Indirect costs can also include child care, tutoring, food/housing for students, clothing, and other related expenses. Although you only see direct expenses on college billing statements, we use the comprehensive cost to determine your eligibility for financial aid. Cost of attendance may vary based on the number of credits and length of your period of enrollment. Please view the Cost of Attendance Samples.
