Cost of Attendance

The cost of attendance (COA) is based on the average estimates for your education-related expenses while attending GRCC. COA is used to help determine your financial aid eligibility.

COA minus your expected family contribution (or EFC, a number determined through the FAFSA) equals your financial need for aid eligibility.

COA varies based on residency status, housing arrangements, enrollment status, and program. It includes a provision for the following estimated expenses:

  • Tuition.
  • Fees.
  • Room and board.
  • Books and supplies.
  • Transportation.
  • Miscellaneous personal expenses.
  • Loan fees.

You may also use our Net Price Calculator for an estimated cost of attendance.
