Cost to Attend
The cost of attendance (COA) is an estimate of what it costs the average student to attend Texas A&M University-Central Texas (TAMUCT). Components of a student's COA include tuition, fees, room, board, books, supplies, transportation and personal expenses. When comparing financial aid packages from other schools, make sure you are comparing the total cost of attending that school and not just the total financial aid awarded. It is also important for student's to understand their COA and make wise budget decisions regarding use of financial assistance. Students are not allowed to receive aid that exceeds their cost of attendance.
