In discussions of the cost of college in the United States, the cost of attendance (COA) (also known as the price of attendance) is a statutory term for the estimated full and reasonable cost of completing a full academic year (usually, nine months) as a full-time student. The cost of attendance is published by each educational institution and includes: * Tuition and fees payable to the institution * Books and supplies * Room and board * Personal costs (medical, toiletries, clothing, laundry) * Transportation to and from the school As of October 29, 2011, every post-secondary institution that receives federal financial aid funds is required to post its COA. Colleges are also required to post a Net Price Calculator, that determines for each prospective or current student a personalized Net Price, which is the difference between COA and need- and merit-based Grant Aid (not including loans or work-study programs). Financial aid cannot exceed the Cost of Attendance. ==See also== *Higher education bubble 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「cost of attendance」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
