Even if all of your college tuition and costs are covered, it is still a good idea to arrive on campus with money for immediate purchase of books and incidentals because delivery of aid is not always immediate.

Students registered for 12 or more credits: | $1,200 |
Students registered for 9-11 credits: | $900 |
Students registered for 6-8 credits: | $600 |
Students registered for fewer than 6 credits: | $300 |
