OTC AskRegs Experts: Unpacking Cost of Attendance
Thursday, 30 October, 2025

This week on "Off the Cuff," Tim and David do a deep dive into the cost of attendance (COA). David begins the conversation by discussing the purpose of COA, and its different categories. From there, Tim and David discuss multiple aspects of COA, including how institutions build their COA and additional fees – such as health insurance and student loan fees. The team also details resources and provides examples to help members better understand COA, including AskRegs answers and an upcoming NASFAA U course dedicated to the topic.
