COST OF ATTENDANCE
2026 - 2027 Academic Year
The Cost of Attendance (COA) is an estimate of the total expenses a student may have during one academic year. It includes tuition and fees, books and course materials, technology and equipment, as well as estimated living expenses such as housing, food, transportation, and personal expenses.
COA is used to help determine financial aid eligibility and is calculated in accordance with federal guidelines. Actual costs will vary based on individual circumstances.

Please note, this rate is based on a national average. Personal expenses include things like medical expenses, clothing, groceries, phone bills, other utilities, etc. A financial aid package may not exceed the student’s COA.

STUDENT LOAN OPTIONS
After you've reduced your total cost of attendance with scholarships and grants, it's time to figure out how to cover the rest. Of course, you should first start with any savings, but if you still come up short, there are a variety of affordable federal and private loan options out there. These options are loans and must be repaid.
Federal Direct Subsidized Loan: Federal student loan for students with demonstrated financial need (based on the EFC on the FAFSA). Fixed interest is subsidized (paid for) by the U.S. Department of Education while the student is enrolled at least half-time (6 credits). Loans are not dependent on credit. Six-month repayment grace period after graduation.
Beginning July 1st, 2026, If a student attends any quarter below full-time (12 credits) amount for the academic year will be prorated.
Federal Direct Unsubsidized Loan: Same as a Federal Direct Subsidized Loan, except that financial need is not required and the student is responsible for paying the accrued interest after repayment begins.
Beginning July 1st, 2026, If a student attends any quarter below full-time (12 credits) amount for the academic year will be prorated.
Federal Direct PLUS Loan: Federal parent loans to help families pay for college costs after grants and scholarships. Parent is responsible for payment and accrued interest when repayment begins. Financial need is not required, but credit rating is a factor. Higher approval rates and lower interest than private loans. Allows for payment deferral up to six months after leaving school.
Beginning July 1st, 2026, maximum amount per academic year is $20,000, maximum lifetime $65,000 per dependent.
Private Student Loan: Private student loans require a co-signer. Financial need is not required, but credit rating is a factor. Several interest rate options are available, but rates are typically higher than PLUS loans. Some loan deferral options are available.
Neumont Institutional Loan Program: Neumont-funded student loan option reserved for students and their parents who are ineligible for PLUS and private student loans due to adverse credit and is serviced by an independent company called Tuition Options. Fund availability is limited.
FEDERAL GRANTS
Neumont participates in federal grant programs, such as Pell Grants and the Supplemental Education Opportunity Grants (SEOG). Students must show financial need, which is determined by the Estimated Family Contribution (EFC) on the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). These options are grants and do not need to be repaid.
Federal Pell Grant: Grant that is evaluated annually based on the FAFSA, which must be submitted every year.
Federal SEOG: Supplemental Education Opportunity Grant is awarded to students with exceptional financial need, with priority given to Pell recipients. Limited funds awarded on first-come, first-served basis.
PROFESSIONAL JUDGEMENT
Sometimes, special or unusual circumstances not reflected on your Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) can affect your ability to pay for your education. In these situations, federal regulations allow financial aid administrators to use professional judgment on a case by case basis, with documentation, to make adjustments to the data elements on your FAFSA that may impact your Expected Family Contribution (EFC). You may request an adjustment to the FAFSA data elements based on special or unusual circumstances.
Special Circumstances refer to the financial situations that justify data elements to be adjusted. For example: Loss of job
Unusual circumstances refer to the conditions that justify an adjustment to a student’s dependency status based on a unique situation, more commonly referred to as dependency override. Examples that warrant an adjustment include but are not limited to: parental abandonment, human trafficking, refugee and asylum status, or parent incarceration.
If you have a special or unusual circumstance and you would like to request a review, please reach out to your Financial Aid Advisor or email FINANCIALAID@NEUMONT.EDU.
