Financial Aid Student Budget

The following budgets are based on full-time enrollment for Fall, Winter and Spring terms. Your cost of attendance (financial aid student budget) is based on average costs and includes:

• Tuition and Fees: Set annually by RCC's Board of Education.


• Books and Supplies: An estimate of average costs for the academic year.


• Room and Board: An estimate of average costs based on double occupancy and off-campus housing. Students living at home will have this amount pro-rated.


• Personal and Transportation: An estimate of possible expenses for personal items, clothing, recreation and travel.


• Loan Fees: Covers a portion of the fee for all loan recipients (only added to those students that are receiving federal student loans from RCC).

* In-state tuition available to Oregon, California, Idaho, Nevada, or Washington residents. Other out-of-state residents cost additional. Standard budgets do not always reflect the needs of all students. If you have dependent care expenses or additional expenses due to a disability, let us know.
