@saillakeerie UK’s COA is currently $46,300 for OOS. For class of 2018 OOS NMFs receiving the Patterson, for years 1 and 2 amount of COA would be $8,254. Years 3 and 4 would be $18,254. Total 4 year of $53,016.
As most probably know, the COA includes books and supplies, travel and other personal expenses that are highly variable. If you look at it for only the direct costs (tuition, room and board), year 1 and 2 would be $2,858. Years 3 and 4 would be $12,858. Total 4 year $31,432.
For in-state kids, you can subtract KEES lottery funded scholarship of up to $2,500 per year/$10k total for four years from that. It does stack. So assume close to nil as far as direct costs for years 1 and 2. In years 3 and 4 when you lose the stipend you would be paying a little over $10k a year.
For the in-state NMFs, the contrast is U of Louisville. They are still offering an automatic full ride. It is for in-state students only.
UK requires a 3.0 GPA to maintain the scholarship.
In reality I think many students find ways to reduce some of these costs. You become an RA. Or you move off campus with your buddies and rent an apartment or house.
