Cost of Attendance


The cost of attendance (COA) is an estimate of what it costs the typical student to attend Texas A&M University-Kingsville. Your cost of attendance is derived from data you provided on your FAFSA. The amounts cover your college tuition and basic living expenses.

If you would like to compare Texas A&M University-Kingsville's costs with other schools, the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board offers a free Estimated Cost/Aid Calculator.

When comparing financial aid packages from other schools, make sure you are comparing the total cost of attending that school, not just the total financial aid awarded. It is important for you to budget and make wise decisions regarding how to utilize the financial aid funds you receive.
