Cost of Attendance (COA) Budget tool

Understand what kind of financial aid you might need as a first-year student to cover the costs of attending Fort Lewis College.

  • The tuition and fee amounts are based on a student taking 30 credit hours (15 credits per Fall/Spring term), which you must do if you plan on completing your degree in 4 years.
  • The table represents averages and may not reflect your bill.
  • Several costs are included that students incur, like books and transportation, that the College does not bill for.
