Cost of Attendance Survey

The Department of Education requires schools to create a Cost of Attendance (COA) that reflects the expenses a student will have while attending Albion College such as

  • tuition and fees,
  • living expenses (housing and food),
  • books, course materials, supplies and equipment,
  • travel, and
  • miscellaneous expenses.

The COA is used to determine the maximum amount of aid a student is eligible for in the academic year.

To better reflect Albion College student expenses, we would like to collect information from you regarding your actual costs. While email addresses are collected as part of the survey, submitting this information will not change your financial aid.

Cost of Attendance Survey

The survey will remain open through October 20.
