Student Expense Budgets

Onondaga Community College establishes a student expense budget that includes tuition, fees, books, room, board, transportation and personal expenses. Only the amounts for tuition and fees will appear on your billing statement but the other expenses are calculated into the student expense budget for the purpose of establishing need and awarding aid.  You can also use the Net Price Calculator to get a estimated comprehensive cost of attending.
