* SOURCE: FY99 Board of Regents Regional Tuition Surveys
NOTE: Total Cost includes tuition and fees and room and board costs. The averages include both colleges and universities and are weighted. The cost was calculated using 32 hours for an undergraduate and 24 hours for a graduate student. Room rates were based on a double occupancy room and board rates were based on the meal provided that provided 15 meals per week or the next closest plan.
