Cost of Attendance
Students that receive financial aid are assigned an estimated budget or Cost of Attendance (COA) for each semester they attend and receive aid. The COA is an estimate of what it might cost a typical student to attend BGSU, full-time, for both Fall and Spring semesters. It includes estimates for instructional and general fees (tuition), housing and food, allowances for books, supplies, transportation to and from BGSU, and personal expenses. It’s primary use is to establish a budget for students and award financial aid.
The estimates within the COA do not reflect the actual amount of money students might owe the University. Each student will receive a bill from the Office of the Bursar that shows their actual University charges. For more information about University’s charges, please refer to the BGSU Bursar Tuition and Fees webpage.
You may also find the undergraduate student calculator or graduate student calculator useful.
Quick links
BGSU Office of Student Financial Aid and Scholarships (SFA) uses student surveys and average costs associated with local vendors to establish a baseline COA for their students. Individual students may find that their own costs vary depending on their living arrangements and personal spending choices. It is important to keep in mind that some of these expenses do not come all at once, as some of these costs such as personal, transportation; or in some cases, housing and food, may be spread over a semester.
It is important to calculate what a student’s personal costs will be to create a more accurate budget and means to manage ones’ money. Students interested in learning more about budgeting and making informed financial decisions should work with a SFA staff member.
COA Breakdown
A student’s COA, at a minimum, must include the categories listed below. Amounts for each category are calculated based on credit hours enrolled each term, length of enrollment each term, housing location (on-campus, off-campus, with parents), campus attending, and the degree-seeking program student is pursuing. When applicable, SFA may make adjustments to the baseline COA, on a case-by-case basis, with supporting documentation from the student to address additional education related expenses.
Direct Costs – items that are billed and paid directly to BGSU
Tuition (Instructional and General Fees)
- Estimated* costs of both instructional plus general fees as determined at the time of COA calculation.
- Amounts based on the degree-seeking program the student is first enrolled in (i.e., the newest cohort class for baccalaureate degree students, master’s degrees, online degrees, etc.).
- New undergraduate students seeking a four-year degree qualify for the Falcon Tuition Guarantee (FTG) rates. Once assigned, the FTG rate is locked in for that cohort class for up to four years.
- SFA assumes students will enroll at fulltime status (undergraduates = 12+crs/semester; graduates = 8+crs/semester). If a student does not enroll for fulltime, amounts are pro-rated to reflect actual enrollment. Contact SFA for more details on how a change in enrollment may impact a student’s financial aid.
- Amount for students participating in an approved co-operative education program based on fulltime status.
- Visit the BGSU Bursar Tuition and Fees webpage for more details on exact per credit hour rates by program type.
*The BGSU Board of Trustees meet in June annually to approve tuition rates that become effective for the next academic year (fall/spring/summer).
Non-Resident Fees
- Out-of-state surcharge fee for students that live outside the state of Ohio.
- SFA assumes students will enroll at fulltime status (undergraduates = 12+crs/semester; graduates = 8+crs/semester).
