Cost of Attending

I. Estimated Cost of Attendance

The estimated Cost of Attendance (COA) is an estimate of the costs a typical full-time student may incur over the Fall, Winter and Spring quarters combined. This figure is used in determining your financial aid eligibility and includes both direct and indirect costs.

Direct costs include tuition, fees and books. Indirect costs include transportation and personal expenses. Many families already have indirect costs (i.e., clothing, laundry, etc.) accounted for in their normal family budget so your actual expenses may be lower than our estimates.

Different costs of attendance exist for different types of students. BCC has four different costs of attending:
  • All Programs Resident living at home
  • All Programs Resident living away from home
  • All Programs Non-resident living at home
  • All Programs Non-resident living away from home.
  • Bachelor of Applied Sciences Resident living at home
  • Bachelor of Applied Sciences Resident living away from home
  • Bachelor of Applied Sciences Non-resident living at home
  • Bachelor of Applied Sciences Non-resident living away from home.
