Cost of Attendance

The cost of attendance is an estimate of the tuition and estimated living and educational expenses you can anticipate annually as a full-time student. The estimated supplies, equipment, food, housing, and personal expense budget allowances are not paid directly to The Modern; they are components that federal regulations require The Modern to include in determining financial aid eligibility. Use these numbers for planning purposes only.
