[University of Michigan Office of Financial Aid: Cost of Attendance](http://www.finaid.umich.edu/Financial_Aid_Basics/cost.asp)

What link are you looking at?

I am not looking at the tuition as a prediction of how much I am going to spend on my college education…its just that I don’t find the factors used in predicting the cost of attendance are accurate for me. For example, as a junior, I may be living off campus, and my transportation costs obviously differ for every school. *

You may be living off-campus, but there will still be costs associated with that.

You really should figure out an approx annual budget. Just looking at tuition is risky.

Have your parents said how much THEY will spend each year on your education?
