Cost of Attending UC

The cost of attending UC consists of direct and indirect costs. Direct costs on your quarterly bill are tuition (instructional, general, technology, campus life, and program fees), room and board (for students residing on campus), and health insurance (if insurance coverage is not documented). Attending college also includes indirect costs. Items such as books and supplies, transportation and parking, personal expenses, and off-campus rent are part of your budget though they will not be billed by the university.

In addition to the direct fees detailed above, we recommend you budget $1,539 for books and supplies, $531 to $1085 for transportation, and between $3,960 and $6,935 for personal expenses per academic year. The total amount we budget for an on-campus, full-time undergraduate, Ohio resident is $27,582.

Remember that what you actually spend in non-billed expenses may differ from the amounts budgeted by the Student Financial Aid Office. You should plan your finances to meet your expenses.
