Cost of Attendance (COA)
The cost of attendance, also known as the student's budget, represents the student's maximum financial aid eligibility for an academic year. The cost of attendance is an estimation of what a student’s costs may be for a student while in attendance at FIT. Total cost of attendance varies from student to student and may change each year depending on residency, degree program and housing.
