Undergrad Total Cost 2010-2011

<p>Any predictions as to when this information will come out? I don't want to commit to the school until I know how much it will cost OOS.</p>

<p>I'm looking at this site right now: Office</a> of Student Financial Assistance : Cost of Attendance</p>

<p>It says OOS total cost is $37,680/yr and in state is $20,134.</p>

<p>How much would you predict tuition will go up for next year?</p>

<p>But again, most importantly, when does this information typically become available? Before May 1 I hope?</p>

<p>IU follows a two year budget cycle along with the state of IN. IU announced last year what the rate increase will be for fall 2010. I’ll check around to see if I can find the announcement from last year when IU announced it’s two year budget. One warning though: This past week the state decreased funding to higher education. IU’s budget for all campuses is taking a 59 million dollar hit. President McRobbie has not indicated that tuition increases will be used to make it up, but no one knows exactly what will happen yet.</p>

<p>I found an old local newspaper article that showed the increases. For the 2010-2011 school year expect a tuition increase of 5.8% or from 26,160 to $27,689. Here is an article that outlines the budget. Remenber that this is for tuition only. I believe the costs for housing are somewhere on the RPS site. </p>

<p>Like most public universities, IU is facing some challenging budgeting issues. The reason for the sudden $59 million dollar cut is lower than expected state revenues at the end of 2009. Given recent conversations, as in the last couple of days, I’ve had with IU professors, and a number of other factors I would expect IU to keep tuition at the budgeted levels. The University is searching for other ways to save the $59 million dollars.</p>

<p>that link is including bogus costs of transportation and personal costs that are overvalued</p>

<p>AHHH that is so expensive for OOS! It’s still less than most private schools but still… I seriously regret not having a higher GPA in high school so that I could have gotten some scholarship money! I really want to go OOS for college, I’m hoping that it’s not going to be too much of a burden on my family though!</p>

<p>I am living 1.1 miles away from campus and am buying kroger brand food (still better than Eigenmann dorm food with a little cooking), so after the distinction scholarship it is about 24k/year OOS. I am living pretty conservatively, but it is relatively cheap. Once you get away from overpriced meal plans/dorm living and buy your textbooks online, it gets a lot cheaper.</p>
