Cost of attendance (COA) includes tuition, fees, required purchases for designated years of medical school, and estimated living expenses. Student COA budgets are developed each academic year by the UTRGV School of Medicine Financial Aid Office and are dependent on tuition and fee structures set by the Texas System Board of Regents. The COA is used to evaluate financial need, award financial aid, and provides students with an estimate of the reasonable cost of attending the UTRGV School of Medicine (SOM). The tables below detail the COA for the academic year selected in tab.
