Cost of Attendance (COA) - Estimating Expenses for an Academic Year
The estimated Cost of Attendance (COA) is used to determine eligibility within the Federal Stafford Loan Program
Your COA is the estimated average cost for all expenses you can expect during an academic period. Besides the cost of tuition, fees, housing and books, you may include everyday expenses such as food, clothing, and household needs. Each year St. Bernard's calculates the COA for our students along with the average index, housing taxes and insurance expenses of those residing in the Rochester and Albany areas. We use real averages of real expenses incurred by real people.
This year St. Bernard’s School of Theology and Ministry’s COA for the full academic year 2009-2010 is $39,433 for full-time study and $27,190 for part-time study. Please note: This is NOT the cost of tuition, but an estimated oost based on a variety of living expenses. Our current tuition costs are noted below:
