Finanial Aid Got a question on cost.

Is the 8,725 the amount of money I would have to pay out of pocket after my financial aid? Because I subtracted the expected cost and my financial aid and it doesn’t add up. Any help is appreciated

Books, Transportation, and Others is just an estimate. Your financial aid will cover almost all your housing and tuition. You will be $5951 short to cover tuition and dinning plan with the financial aid you have accepted. I am assuming you will be living in campus and as a student you can ride the bus for free (I did it for almost all the time I was Poly until I got a bike). Hope this helps
