COST OF ATTENDANCE
Cost of Attendance is an estimate of how much your educational costs are expected to be for an academic year (Fall and Spring semesters).
Cost of Attendance includes:
- TUITION and FEES are fixed costs for any given academic year. Specific tuition and fee amounts for all undergraduate and graduate programs can be found below the Cost of Attendance information.
- BOOKS and SUPPLIES are variable costs and depend upon your particular program of study. Books and supplies are estimated at $589.00 per semester.
- ROOM, BOARD, TRANSPORTATION, and PERSONAL EXPENSES are extremely variable costs and can consume the biggest part of your budget at WVU. Because of their flexible nature, these costs deserve your most careful consideration. Please consult the room and board costs for WVU owned facilities on the Housing web pages.
In addition to these costs, there are other variables involved in determining your cost of attendance – your residency status: resident (in-state) vs. non-resident (out-of-state); your living arrangements: living at home vs. living in WVU owned housing vs. living off-campus in an apartment; your year in college.
Students admitted to Potomac State College should consult the PSC tuition and fee schedule
