Is the cost of attendance the same for all? Or does that vary? Ask for consideration of getting your family to a similar overall cost. That may be an additional $12000 instead of $20,000 depending on the cost of attendance.

If by “cost of attendance” you are referring to the published COA, that by definition is the same for all, just like the sticker price on a new car. What matters is how much of a discount is offered to each individual buyer and under what circumstances.
