At this pace, a senior would spend approximately $21,971 for a four-year (bachelor’s) degree, and about $20,253 for the last year of an associate degree.

Over a four-year stay, the projected room, board and living-cost total is about $82,768 for a bachelor’s, while two years would run about $39,705 over a two-year associate program.

Budget for Annual Increases

Most schools raise housing and dining costs gradually each year, so today’s figure is unlikely to be what you pay all four years.
