2010-2011 Room Rates

The amount of the residential comprehensive fee was determined by taking an average of costs for students over a two year period.  Juniors and seniors typically live in smaller facilities that offer more autonomy, and are more expensive to heat, repair and maintain, which is reflected in the higher residential comprehensive fee for upperclassmen. This plan continues to provide juniors and seniors a flexible, all points plan, which complements the relatively more independent housing options available to them.

The residential comprehensive fee makes it easier for families to budget by eliminating the variability in room and board rates.  It enables the university to increase grant aid to ensure that financial aid packages take full account of student expenses.
