Maybe Im not calculating the tuitions right but when I look at the breakdown, SB is around 113,000 total where as NYIT comes out to about 105,000 total.
I asked SB's admissions committee about the tuition cost breakdown, and they gave me vague answers. There is no reason why people should have discrepancies calculating tuition and I wish it was written clearly. I had to look at the curriculum page to find the credits and refer to a PDF with the per credit rate to find the information. Needless to say, it was not straightforward. I really appreciate schools that offer transparency and state the total amount for the three years. @
Anthony 44 How are you calculating the tuition?
For a NYS resident, each semester including fees is 10,433.00
. I am assuming this is for the fall and spring semesters, and there are 6 total. 10,433.00 x 6 =
62,598.00
I can't imagine the summer semesters, which have fewer credits than the fall/spring semesters to be valued the same so I calculated tuition using the per credit rate table:
----first summer is 8 credits:
7029.20
----second summer is 8 credits:
7029.20
----third summer is 8.5 credits and I rounded up to 9 credits (because we all know institutions like to rack up charges
):
7906.60
Now add it all up:
62,598.00 + 7029.20 + 7029.20 + 7906.60 = a grand total of $84563 for tuition alone.
This is the best I could do to estimate tuition cost, and maybe I am not calculating it right.....
