2024-2025 Cost of Attendance
The Cost of Attendance, also known as a budget, is used to determine how much financial aid students receive. Westcliff establishes these budgets using data provided from the California Student Aid Commision SEARS Study Data. We use an eight month budget (two semester) Academic Year. Westcliff uses average student expenses to estimate the cost of attendance. Your actual costs may vary from those outlined here depending on your living situation, school supplies, whether or not you have children, personal spending habits, etc.
The costs listed below are based on full time enrollment and do not include loan fees.. Students that take out federal student loans will have applicable federal loan fee averages added to their cost of attendance.
