yes, i looked at the first year expenses, they calculated for us. But do some research on housing around the school yourself. Is there affordable places near school, is there grocery stores, restaurants or department stores near by for ease of convenience. We are going to be in school a lot and some times life would be easy if you have easy access to places. What about activities do like hiking, swimming, what do you do for fun b/c you will need days to relax. Do you like cold or hot weather, for some snow is new to them Which would be cheaper for you or easier to get back home to see your family or for them to see you.
