The Office of Student Financial Aid constructs average financial aid budgets that include:
- Tuition and fees
- Books and supplies
- Room and board (living expenses)
- Transportation cost
- Personal expenses
These budget items added together make up the Cost of Attendance. The Financial Aid Cost of Attendance reflects an average cost for a student attending Montgomery College full-time for the 9-month academic year. You can view your average cost by selecting the correct menu below. Learn how we determine your residency status.
NOTE: Montgomery College does NOT offer dormitories/housing. For students attending less than half time (five hours or less) the cost of attendance excludes two items: Room & Board and Personal Expenses. All tuition and fees are subject to change by action of the Board of Trustees.
