Understanding your Cost of Attendance (COA) is essential for planning how to finance your education and manage living expenses throughout the year. This page breaks down the full picture of expected costs, which determine your maximum financial aid eligibility and can help guide informed borrowing decisions.

The Cost of Attendance (COA) or proposed budget is the total estimated cost for the academic year. It includes expenses you will incur as both direct/billable educational expenses (such as tuition, fees and on-campus housing that will appear on your bill) and indirect costs (expenses not on the bill, but you may have such as books/supplies, transportation, off-campus living expenses, etc.) Financial aid offers cannot exceed the Cost of Attendance.

Please reach out to the Office of Student Financial Planning with any questions about your Cost of Attendance.

An additional $750 will be added to your first semester’s cost of attendance to assist with purchasing a computer. If you do not need the additional $750, we strongly suggest reducing the amount of loans funds you accept by this amount.

When calculating the amount you will borrow and the budgets listed you must take into consideration the Federal mandated origination fees. Access types of aid for additional information.

Once the specific on- or off-campus total budget has been met, no additional funds will be available. Your current outstanding consumer debt cannot be included in the budget.

2026-2027 Cost of Attendance

The COA/budgets outlined below represents the 2026-2027 academic year. This includes the Summer 2026, Fall 2026, and Spring 2027 semesters. Federal regulations require COA/Budgets be updated annually for each academic year. At New York Medical College, these updates are typically completed by the end of April each year.
