Co-ops range from 8 dollars an hour to (on average) 17 an hour. Engineering and Business tend to be higher (ex: 18). CS can be higher, depending on the job (ex: 22). The top ones tend to be absolute max 26, and that’s the Big 4 accounting jobs that are very hard to get. My first co-op was 14 an hour, and it was seen as very very good for a first co-op.

Co-op will likely NOT cover room and board, especially not if you add in living expenses, commuting money, food, etc etc. If you are very lucky and it does, then you will not have any savings afterwards.

It’s widely understood that you should never consider co-op money when calculating how much college will cost.
