Your Estimated Cost of Attendance
Your Cost of Attendance (COA) at UT Dallas is determined by the Office of Financial Aid each year and is an estimate of what it may cost you to attend each semester. Actual costs will vary from student to student. The cost of tuition is based on the number of hours you are enrolled in during the semester, when you began your enrollment at UT Dallas, and costs specific to the program you are pursuing. The cost of living expenses will also vary from student to student. Personal spending patterns, living arrangement choices, and other factors will influence these costs. The COA for a student in school at least half-time consists of the following direct and indirect costs:
Direct Costs
- Tuition and fees
- Housing (if you live on campus)*
- Food (if you live on campus)*
Indirect Costs
- Books and supplies
- Transportation
- Personal expenses
- Federal loan fees, if applicable
*If you will be living off campus, housing and food would be considered indirect costs.
Answer a few questions in the COA Questionnaire below to see what your COA might look like.
