Budget Notes

  • Federal regulations require that we use a single student budget for all students. A federally established Standard Maintenance Allowance will be added for married students and/or students with dependents.
  • Adjustments will be made to the standard single student budget for insurance and origination fees for Federal Direct Loans.
  • The personal expense allowance, intended for laundry, clothing, entertainment, etc., assumes a modest level of spending during the year.
