M.D. Student Cost of Attendance
Â鶹ŮÀÉ College of Medicine
Estimated Cost of Attendance
Students’ Cost of Attendance (COA) budgets are developed each academic year by the Office of Medical Student Financial Aid. They include Tuition and Fees (as approved by Â鶹ŮÀÉ’s governing boards); an allowance for books and supplies; and a cost of living allowance for housing and food, Transportation, and Personal Expenses (see definitions, below). COA’s are estimated during the early awarding process and are subject to change once Â鶹ŮÀÉ’s governing boards finalize each year’s tuition and fee charges.
The COA, in conjunction with the students’ Student Aid Index (SAI) from their FAFSA’s, is used to both calculate financial aid eligibility and to give students an estimate of reasonable costs to attend the Charles E. Schmidt College of Medicine.
The standard student budgets, shown below, are based on the average expenses of a single student who shares expenses for a two-bedroom apartment. Costs for students' spouses and/or children are not included in the standard budget; those expenses are accounted for in the FAFSA’s need analysis formula, which calculates the SAI.
Tuition and fees Ìýare charged at a fixed annual rate. Half of the tuition and fees are billed at the beginning of the first semester, and half are billed at the start of the second semester. See "Important Dates".
Federal Student Loan Origination FeesÌý are added as an additional allowance for students who borrow through the Federal Loan Programs, and incur those costs.
Off-campus Housing estimates Ìýare based on an average of rates obtained in an annual survey of local apartment complexes. An allowance for utilities (power, water, cable, internet, phone) is included in the estimate. Estimates are based on double occupancy.
On-campus Housing Ìýrates are calculated at the Innovation Village Apartment cost per semester for a 2 Bed/ 2 bath apartment. SeeÌý current on campus housing costs. All medical students who choose to live on campus are housed in the Innovation Village Apartments.Ìý
With Parents Housing estimates Ìýinclude an allowance for housing expenses (household operations, supplies, furnishings and equipment) and utilities (power, water, cable, internet, phone).
Off-Campus and On-Campus Food estimates Ìýare based on the Cost of Food at Home data published by the United States Department of Agriculture, adjusted for the regional Cost of Living Index and inflation.
With Parents Food estimatesÌý are based on the Cost of Food at Home data published by the United States Department of Agriculture, adjusted for the regional Cost of Living Index and inflation.
The transportation allowance is an estimated cost for routine car maintenance, gas, and insurance.
M1 & M2 Students:
On-campus transportation Ìýis calculated as a prorated portion of the off-campus calculation to reflect reduced variable costs
Off-campus Transportation Fee estimates Ìýare based on the monthly vehicle operating costs for the Dade and Broward county region as listed in theÌý .
M3 & M4 Students:
As daily travel is required to hospitals both in and outside the local area, an average distance to and from the Â鶹ŮÀÉ Schmidt College of Medicine is calculated for the year. This average is multiplied by the currentÌý Ìýto determine transportation cost for the year.
