You will also need to complete a Master Promissory Note if you have not done so in the last 10 years. This is a promise to pay anything you borrow from the government. It can also be found at www.studentloans.gov

Cost of Attendance
Net Price Calculator
The financial aid office uses an estimate of direct and indirect costs to determine how much financial aid a student may be eligible for. Direct costs include tuition, fees, some books and supplies, and institutional housing. Indirect costs include estimates of other living expenses, transportation, and personal expenses. Examples of the cost of attendance estimates used can be found by using the net price calculator.
