Using the official Alabama COA for in-state, ignoring tuition/fees/room:

Meals: $4934
Books: $800
Transportation: $2206
Misc.: $2464
Loan fees: $70

Total: $10,474/year

$4000 in supplemental scholarships beyond tuition etc. leaves ~$6700 remaining from the COA. Out of state, add another $800 (transportation is higher). I’m not saying you there aren’t ways to get out cheaper than that – certainly there are – but if we’re comparing apples with apples UCF for now covers more of the COA than Alabama or UT-Dallas.

That all said, I think the individual differences of fit, feel, etc. between these three are much more important than the marginal differences in cost.
