Direct costs tuition/fees/room/board are ‘only’ $86K. There are schools whose direct costs are or will be over $90K for 2024-25. For example, NYU Tisch will be ~$94k in direct costs this fall.

I also found this snippet from the article interesting:

The COA increase comes at the same time as students are grappling with an adjustment to the University’s financial aid policies that will limit federal and state aid for students taking courses outside their main degree of study.

That info is on the website here: Terms and Conditions | Undergraduate Financial Assistance | University of Miami

@kelsmom What does this mean in practical terms? Does this mean U Miami gross direct COA will only include courses needed for the student’s degree and financial aid will be applied to that (possibly artificially deflated) number?
