The estimates listed below are based upon the most up-to-date information available. They are for your information and use in structuring a budget (personal and/or financial aid purposes). They are subject to the forces of both inflation and the world money market. You are responsible for keeping up-to-date on the value of the US dollar. Expenses such as incidentals, vacation costs, books and supplies, and airfare are the most variable. Careful planning in these areas may allow you to follow a somewhat more limited budget. Our estimates of these areas represent an average anticipated cost.
