Educational Costs

Direct & Indirect Costs

There are many costs associated with going to school. Some are direct costs for which you will receive a bill from the Business Office (tuition and fees). Others are indirect—food, housing, transportation, etc. Your Cost of Attendance (COA) budget is based on Prescott College student averages of these direct and indirect costs. This enables us to assist you with as many of these expenses as possible.
