Additional Costs
Room and Board The weighted average for room and board and other expenses is generated as follows:
  • (amount for on-campus room, board and other expenses * # of students living on-campus.
  • + amount for off-campus (with family) room, board and other expenses * # of students living off-campus with family
  • + amount for off-campus (not with family) room, board and other expenses * # of students living off-campus not with family)
divided by the total # of students. Students whose living arrangements are unknown are excluded from the calculation. For some institutions the # of students by living arrangement will be known, but dollar amounts will not be known. In this case the # of students with no corresponding dollar amount will be excluded from the denominator.

Yes. Focused deeply in my career.
Reba from Tynan, TX
Coastal Bend College is unquestionably the ideal community college. Coastal Bend College is remarkably staffed with intelligent, caring, and eager employees that always have a smile on their face. Instructors will go to any distance necessary to aid you along your path towards success. I have seen instructors go above and beyond by breaking down materials so that any and every individual can grasp, listening to students feedback if they are moving along to quickly, staying after hours till the sun goes down to tutor those who seek it, and holding group tutor sessions on their personal weekend days before tests. They immediately return messages whether they are over a text, phone call, or email and will always aid you with whatever knowledge they have regarding questions that you may seek answers to, and in those rare instances that they do not know the answer, they will make it a priority to advise you to someone that will.
Joseph from Beeville, TX
The teachers here really know what they're talking about, and the small school setting makes it easy to communicate with them when you need a little more help on a certain topic, plus your fellow students help a lot too. It's easy to just hang out with them before the teacher comes in and just talk about the assignments in a relaxed environment.
