Cost of Attendance

The Office of Financial Aid uses a “standard cost of attendance budget” to calculate your estimated educational costs before scholarships, aid, or discounts, including the New Nebraskan Scholarship. This represents typical costs for students during the nine-month academic year based on anticipated enrollment, residency status, and living arrangements (on campus, off campus or with parents). The amounts below represent the cost of attendance for the 2022-2023 academic year. 

What’s Included

  • Direct costs (items charged by UNK):
    • tuition,
    • fees, and
    • on-campus housing and food.
  • Indirect costs (items not paid to UNK)*:
    • books and supplies,
    • off-campus housing,
