Estimated Cost of Attendance:

Your financial aid eligibility is determined by taking your cost of attendance for the academic year minus your expected family contribution (results of filing the FAFSA).  Your cost of attendance is comprised of your direct, billed costs for tuition and fees   and if applicable, room and board.  Additionally, you incur related education expenses for which you are not billed such as books and supplies, transportation costs, etc.  The combination of your direct and indirect costs equals your cost of attendance.

The direct costs shown below are actual expenses for the 2010-2011 academic year. Students should also expect to incur indirect costs such as costs for books and supplies. Direct costs appear on a student’s bill, while indirect costs vary according to individual needs. Please remember that students must purchase their books each semester from the book store. Charges for books will not appear on a student’s bill.

*Room cost is an average.  Additional charges may apply depending on room assignment, and meal plan selection.

**This allowance is for non-resident living expenses.

***PAL Fee (if applicable) is $6,550 (credit bearing) and $6,400 (non-credit bearing) additional to the full-time tuition rate noted above and $3,450 for supportive PAL.

Fall, 2010 semester bills will be mailed on June 2, 2010 for currently enrolled students and June 14, 2010 for entering students.  Subsequent bills are mailed monthly and are due in full upon receipt.  Spring, 2011 bills will be mailed on approximately November 15, 2010  for all students who were enrolled during the Fall, 2010 semester.  Subsequent bills are mailed monthly and are due in full upon receipt.  A $200 late fee will be assessed for late payment.

Health Insurance:

The Commonwealth of Massachusetts requires colleges and universities to provide a Student Health Insurance Plan (SHIP) with minimum statutory levels of coverage.  Curry College provides this coverage to all students who are enrolled in nine or more credit hours.  Unless an insurance waiver is completed by the specified due date, insurance will be provided by the College.  The per student charge is $891 for the 2010-2011 academic year.

Students may provide such proof of coverage by completing a Student Health Insurance Waiver Form online by the published deadline.  A Student Health Insurance Waiver Form MUST be completed each academic year.
