So I’ve been accepted as an OOS student. Tuition is around 28K a year for OOS and minus the 8k they give for OOS and the 5k grant I get from FAFSA, it still comes out to be about 16K a year for tuition alone.
Now room and board, I haven’t look into it yet, but I’m looking to pay for the cheapest option possible for a DOUBLE ROOM…I’m not sure how much that’s gonna cost or if it varies for in and oos…
At the end of the day my family can’t afford anything more than 12K a year…any thoughts/ways to save money?
Have you applied to your own in state college?
yes i have, and i have been accepted to one of them, which is SUNY stony brook @redpoodles
Room and board is going to be $11,500 on top of your tuition. How much is SUNY?
stony is 6k a year instate + 2K fee + ~7K room and board + (not sure if mandatory) 4K meal plan…
so thats 6K tuition + 13K of…stuff @redpoodles
do you know if there’s anyway to cut down room and board? I don’t need a meal plan, I heard their meal plan is 4k…i won’t spend 4k on food per semester. i’ve done the math.
Freshmen have to be on the meal plan, unless you’re a commuter student.
You would have to take out loans
