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.

Always ask questions! The instructors are there for you! If you show that you care about your grade, they are willing to work with you and help you succeed. Be aware of deadlines for scholarships and anything else. Whenever you're getting different answers about anything, try to talk to the person in charge of the program that you're asking about, whether it's a class or a club. If you need help with a subject, ask for help! They have tutors in the library. Try to get a 3.5 your first semester so you can get Phi Theta Kappa (PTK). This will help you out at University. Take some Honors classes. They're no different than the normal ones, and it gets you into the Honors club. The classroom sizes are even smaller, so if you like that, it works hand-in-hand. Make sure you go to class first before buying books! If you do end up buying first and they have shrink wrap, DON'T TAKE THE SHRINK WRAP OFF until you go to class to make sure you have the right book!!! If it didn't come with shrink wrap, you might have a hard time returning the book. It's better to wait until class.
